No that is not correct. These days the correct way is to
put the country designator before the call sign i e
R/K4BAI or IM/K4BAI or PJ4/K4BAI.
After the call sign you put information about for example
if you are mobile, portable or similar i e PJ4/K4BAI/m
if mobile or P5/K4BAI/p if portable in North Korea.
This is the correct international way to do it, nothing else.
I know that some people still does it the other way around
but that is simply wrong and makes things more confusing.

I am afraid that /R and /IM are not permitted by FCC rules because the
/R prefix belongs to Russia and the /IM prefix belongs to Italy.
Of course the very popular /M and /P calls are also not permitted by
the FCC for the same reason.
Nevertheless, the contest rules could never be adopted to require an ID
that is illegal by FCC definition.
