- Why wouldn't we believe you? All of us have that once in a while. Usually my call makes it into the packet as WH4X instead of W5VX. This usually ends up with a few busted calls for me. ...and I ID on

- Disagree. Just because they don't (actually can't) check doesn't mean that you don't have to send the proper number in that slot. If not, why does it say in the rules that it is the date you were fir

- I think that often it depends on the persons personal voice as to what is hard to understand. I am continually baffled when DX stations get my call, W5VX - wrong. They want to say "W" instead of "V".
