Well, that is also a valid comment Henk!
Yes, the insertion into badcall would be a good variant.
On the other hand, it would also be a good exercise for DXers to sometimes
regain the capability of finding a callsign without a cluster.
This art seems to me a memory of the past, now when everyone seem to deserve
a laid table... with lots of delicious DX meals served without the effort of
actually finding the DX in the conventional way.
To simply press the DX call through the cluster does not really make me
enjoy the QSO, but I am maybe an old-fashioned DXer... at the age of 44 ;)
