Hi Jeff,
That is what I said when the discussion came up
before. What is the purpose of saying the check is
the last 2 digits of the year first licensed, if they
don't intend on enforcing it? Why not say, the check
is any 2 digit number you make up.
Heck, instead of sending U for the PREC, I should have
send A even though I was in the U category, since it
is a shorter exchange, and the PREC you send in no way
affects the scoring for the other station.
