While a slashed zero (Ø) may look pretty, logging software does not recognize Ø
as a zero.
Just as O looks like a 0, if you submit your log with noke instead of n0ke
(apologies to N0KE
for using his call as an example), you'll end up with a BAD call assignment.
In the very old days, lower case L was used as a 1 (when using a typewriter).
Nobody today
would log klar instead of k1ar. Equally, nobody should be logging noke instead
of n0ke, etc.
Forgo the appearance; use the correct letter/number when submitting your logs.
