Should we be able to compress this kind of call?
KA1ABC/1 WB9XYZ/1
In r7634 it comes back truncated to 13 chars free text.
KA1ABC/1 WB9X
And this should be compressible too?
W1/KA1ABC WB9XYZ EM49
Isn't the idea that a prefix/suffix is just an "add" to the code word?

Hi Mike, that's an edge case that needs to be considered. Often a message that
is not a standard one becomes so when truncated. Even more complex is a message
that can be either a free text in full and a standard message when truncated. I
suspect the former is preferable as no characters are lost but when both look
the same and both lose characters then it must be an error. Case in point is
your original example: "DE W9MDB/QRP 2W" is a standard message when truncated
"DE W9MDB/QRP" and also truncated as a free text message "DE W9MDB/QRP ". Both
look the same. I guess the rule for errors is any loss of non-space characters
when encoding is an error. Leading and trailing spaces can be discarded and
multiple spaces are reduced to one. These are of course valid test cases,
augmenting every other test case.
