Unfortunately, the Prefix/Suffix thing for operating in other countries
is not consistent.
I've operated from other countries and I've always followed what was
listed on my reciprocal license, resulting in a mix of prefixes/suffixes:
K0NR/C6A, PJ4/K0NR, K0NR/HI, K0NR/HR9
It would seem that "the right way" to do this is by adding in a Prefix,
but not all regulatory authorities prescribe this.
It would seem that N1MM+ is designed for HF contesters by HF contesters. :-)
