Wrong prefix or not?

Today I kept S2S-qso from Jyranvuori OH/JS-066 with SF7MS/p at 08.08 UTC. He said his reference being SF/BR-038. But now, when I am checking this reference I do not find any “SF” and any SF7MS call. I think, I heard his call and reference correct, but am I stupid or is it any other solution?

There is no SF association listed. The only BR-038 summits are

W4V/BR-038 Peters Mountain
W7M/BR-038 “10382”

Could be a pirate or someone just out to cause trouble.

Poor handwriting? Exchange F with 5 and you end up with Marco S57MS/p on S5/BR-038.
Edit: Even more poor handwriting? Marco was spotted on S5/BR-028 not 038.

Michael, you are genius – me an idiot! :grinning:

Problem is not in handwriting even inside my brains. I remember how he said “es five” and I wrote “SF”. Listening foreign languages has never been my core competence. Now this was one of those evidences. I checked Marco’s log from database but he has not yet filled it about today’s summit. Let’s wait couple of days so I can be sure. But I think the solution has been found! Vielen danken!

That’s not his log Karl!

I suggest you have a look at the SOTA callsigns checker on http://www.on6zq.be/w/index.php/SOTA.SOTAcheck

It gives you the following suggestions:

SF7MS: S57MS S57MB NT7S KF7MAX AF7LU ZS6MMS
