Hi Ingebrigt,

Thanks for pointing out this detail.  Compound callsigns like LA/VK2LJM 
raise many issues, not all of which are presently handled in an ideal 
way in WSJT-X.  By copy of this message to the wsjt-devel (the WSJT 
Developers email list), I will bring it to the attention of others -- in 
particular Murray Curtis, VK3ACF, who Wrote the code that identifies 
DXCC entities from callsigns.
