Simple answer, change the macro from "AD1C TU QRZ?"  to
"AD1C TU N9LAH CQ" unless you're worried about milliseconds :)
Less time than trying to fix the mess with other stations calling the 
wrong call.

I didn't have much time to play in this one so chased the last one I
needed for 15m WAS but no luck hearing Wyoming. On the 
bright side I did finally get the last one for RTTY DXCC all
LOTW...happy dance time...
