Jeff,
Sorry to say but, there are many USA calls in the data file. I looked at
it with PC Tools text viewer and even saw a couple of local guys (NX0I
and AB0X to name a few).

Actually, where I really notice the advantage is when I'm signing W3LPL,
but maybe those antennas have something to do with it, too? :-)
Sometimes, I think the 7 call helps attract EU stations, but a lot of
them try to put me in MT instead of MD, or ask for a repeat on my zone.
I think it's a real disadvantage for domestic tests. Matts, SM7PKK, has
the right idea though: if you're on enough and your call is really well
known, it doesn't matter what the callsign is. People will recognize it
& copy it correctly. 73,
