I usually switch off leading zeros after 10 QSO's. It's pretty easy to click on a two digit number. I agree that a single digit is tough, especially with a whole bunch of windows open, which requires a small font size.

Interesting point, Hank. I don’t click on anything so I never considered clicking on a single digit, which as you say would be more difficult.

And you only need to send the zeros for 99 Qs!  :^)

Have an exuberant weekend!

Thanks everyone for WPX practice QSOs tonight.

Quite a few were not sending serial-number leading zeros.

Either way works for me. But there are many number clickers out there who have trouble clicking on a single digit. Make it easy for them by sending
leading zeros and you will have faster QSOs.

Diddle Exuberantly,
