George: Add a #4, When operating with my call in Canada, I sign my
call followed by the Canadian prefix. Example WV2ZOW/VE3. As for your
#2 and 3, you are likely correct unless the country you are operating
in requires something different. FCC rule 97.119 has some additional
conditions. Available on ARRL web site. --73, Mike, WV2ZOW
