I was frequently called for repeats of the number I sent in the SS =
exchange.
I'd used %3 to send a three-digit number. It's really confusing to send =
serial number 50 as "T50". I'd like to either use all cut numbers (0 =
and nine), or no cut numbers, but it's too confusing (as evidenced by =
the number of times I had to resend my number) to have some zeros sent =
as "t" and others sent as "0".
For SS, I guess I can change %3 to % and avoid the leading digit. But =
for WPX, I believe the rules want a three-digit number sent for the =
first 99 QSOs, and I'd prefer to send a full zero. Is that something I =
can change with an undocumented INI file setting?
I looked for "cut" in Help, but didn't find it indexed or in a search. I =
also looked through help for anything that describes how numbers are =
sent.
I seek something like the CT NOCWABBREV command.
Dick, K6KR
