Hi Bill

Sometimes if you send the exchange and the callsign is not in the logger, it 
will send '000' for a number.  I think I've seen the call in the area above 
the entry box but it's not in the box.  Then it will send '000'.  73

I don't know the answer to Ron's question but I have another WPX funny,
possibly related to the above.

About four times I received "W6WRT 599 000 000". In each case, the
station immediately recognized the invalid serial number and quickly
sent a valid one. Just curious how this happened in the first place.
Some new software?
