I have noticed the "one out" serials several times, but also I have
found that almost as often the one out is in the "tens" column rather
than the "unit".
Since it has happened just as frequently on SSB as on CW I conclude that
the main problem is my typing! Likewise I find that "errors" in call
sign often involve an adjacent keyboard character.
However in the SSB UBN just received I am surprised to see an invalid
RS. Apparently the correct Sent RS was "50" which I find difficult to
believe. The associated serial number was received correctly. The
originating station was M0GQB. I had logged "59". Unless he was out to
wind us up!
These UBNs are really useful, I am double-checking my typing now.
