[UK-CONTEST] GQ Prefixes

[Ken Eastty]

I must be missing something, why would anyone entering a contest
want to make their callsign longer than it is normally?

(In fact I fail to see the point of special calls for anything be they 
Jubilees, Mills, Lighthouses or Dogs Homes or why some people are so 
keen to work a station just because it has an extra letter tagged onto 
the prefix?)
