I have noticed that behavior with Writelog for some time.  Even if there is a 
DE in front of the call it will miss the portable part of the callsign and I 
have to put it in manually.

 Well,  I  was  sure  something  like  that  was  happening.   There  will  be  
a  few  busted  calls,  though.  

I  see  I  worked  you  in  2006  and  2007,  but  have  missed  you  this  
year.   Hope  we  can  meet  up  again.

Don,

I  would  think  your  call  may  have  been  AD0K  in  earlier  contests  and  
the
logging  software  is  picking  up  the  AD0K  and  thinks  the  /5  is  bad  
data  and
not  part  of  the  call.  I  have  seen  this  many  times  in  past  contests.
The  Friend  File  looks  at  the  call  put  into  the  call  field  and  
checks  to  see
if  there  is  name  link  to  the  call.  It  does  not  control  what  call  
is  decoded
or  sent  during  the  exchange.

I  noted  that  several  operators  refused  to  add  the  /5  to  my  callsign 
 AD0K/5
despite  several  attempts  for  them  to  get  it  right.  I  am  wondering  
if  the
"friends"  list  on  WriteLog  might  be  the  main  culprit.
