As a victim of another local foundation ham (caught) unlawfully using my
callsign on 20m FT8 recently, and reports
heard of other fake and unauthorized callsign use, I wonder about the
possibility
of a digital Mode database setup & registered to , with license proof
etc, similar to QRZ.
A hex code only then secure issued to the ham passing this test for
software use.
Wsjtx would be coded to have a code entry near Callsign field, and only
accepting on correct code entered.
This would go a long way to providing confidence that the callsign
worked is genuine (DXPeditions etc), and protecting
your own callsign from mis-use.
