I have never used any of Prof Taylor's modes, but this:

... appears to say you have 13 characters after the callsigns.
Seems more than enough for Class (max 3), Section (max 3), and even
Grid (4) plus 2 spaces (total max 12).

If the callsigns were included, you'd have zero characters left after
"AB5XYZ WZ5ABC" ...
