This looks plausible on the surface, but it introduces another problem. Without 
having the suffix, you effectively strip the ability of your contest software 
to differentiate among the 200 spotted DL stations as workable QSO points. You 
might as well work the contest the old fashioned way, unassisted.

Okay... I can't resist (forgive me).

During a contest (or all the time?), the spotting software should be changed 
so that only the PREFIX is accepted/transmitted.  That way, everybody would 
have to copy the call on their own.  NO errors in spotting, no CORRECTIONS 
needed.  

This way, you still don't have to find the MULT on your own (ashame), but you 
DO 
have to actually COPY THE CALL (cw and ssb) on your own.

I know...dream on.
