This applies primarily to recently licenced UK call sign holders more than any other group.
For some reason, probably based on poor training during Covid lockdowns, or possibly on how the latest licence document from the UK authority is formatted, there are a group of people recording call signs incorrectly in their logs. A typical example would be someone entering their own call as M9 ZYX and mine as MM0 FMF/P or MM0 FMF /P.
THERE ARE NO SPACES IN A CALL SIGN.
That chase should show M9ZYX and MM0FMF/P. I’m off to consider the best way of fixing this, probably a nice script to remove the spaces.
However, can I notify everyone that when I next find someone doing this I’m strongly minded to delete the QSOs without warning.
Please learn the correct formats and enter call signs correctly. Thanks.
