Hi Chris, I wouldn't think so. A callsign is a callsign and is part of your identity and thusly required by law; in Canada anyway. A signal report or contest exchange is not something that is legally

Is it considered acceptable to use cut numbers in a callsign when CQing in a contest? For instance, I use G8D, so could I use GUD, or for GU8D could I use GUUD? Chris G3SJJ __________________________

I wouldn't reconnemd it. For one thing, in some calls how do you know where the number goes? Suppose you heard "UENN". Is that UE9N or U5NN? 73, Zack WNSZ ____________________________________________

Cut numbers were introduced decades ago to cut a bit longish numerical (ciphererd) radiogrammes and were supposed to use just in strictly numerical textes. Thhey should never be used in mixed (both l

Cut numbers are problematic; there are conflicting cut numbers systems with resulting ambiguities. Perhaps the most commonly accepted cut numbers system merely eliminates all extra dashes beyond the

Yes, Eric. I messed up and that also. The post was bad humour on my part. I had heard a station giving what I thought was a cut-number in a callsign and wanted to draw attention to it. I would never

When your rate is 3 or 4 per MINUTE, then yes, it surely can; it can bump you up another Q per minute. I have no doubt that at least some Europeans experienced such rates, if only briefly, during the

While it may be time saving to send cut numbers, is there any advantage if the receiving op need repeats to get it right. I think one normal transmission would be quicker than repeating. I recall a M

The problem here was that the other operator just didn't anticipate, and thus expect, cut numbers in the actual power level. Cut numbers are 99% OK when it comes to the signal report; but when it com

It seems that for NA ops, limited use of cut numbers works well. Using a T for leading zeros seems to work pretty well, and using O for a middle zero in the serial number does ok most of the time. Us

My point was that a skilled op, upon being called by someone, can often make an impromptu estimate whether that other station can handle being sent cut numbers. For example, when called by someone of
