I know there is a limit on the size of the name - I experimented with making
some "special" entries for "special occasions", e.g. AA5AU=BIG PORCH DOG.
I'm not sure now what the limit is, but it's something like 10-12
characters, beyond which it will truncate. That's not the problem with
ALDO, obviously.
