Hi Shelby
Most software will send the corrected call--if you have that checked.
If I correct my call and they just come back with QSL QRZ without sending
the corrected call, I just delete the contact. I never know if they got it
right nor not.
I send the callers callsign twice 'W1XXX 599 OR W1XXX' I see no need to
send it again in the TU message if all is correct. If they let me know it's
wrong, I WILL send the corrected callsign. 73
