Hi;
I was discussing using CT with a friend of mine last night, which prompts a
question
I usually run CT for this; in WPX mode since we issue serial numbers.
I never know the best settings to use in CT for this.
If I use the default (5NN #) then it actually sends 5NN 1 etc. So I
usually modify this to pad it with the leading zero's with some T's (5NN
TT#). Then, I have to remember after the 9th QSO to remove one of the T's.
Same after the 99th QSO.
If I chose the -LZ line switch at the CT commend line; then my leading
zero's are full length ones - 001 instead of TT1. CWABBREV would send TTA,
which I don't want either (confuses too many people)
Am I missing something, or is this exactly right?
I Know TR can do the right thing; what about SD?
