Who is Lionel?

The last two days I thoroughly engjoyed my activations on GW/SW-001 and -002. Today on GW/SW-001 all spots show my name as “Lionel”. Yesterday it was a mix between “Lionel” and “Dominik”.
The more regular chassers call me “Dominik”, “Dom” or just “Nik”.

I think this naming issue showed up last year as well but I can’t remember if it was chased down and fixed or not. It only happens if I’m using a CEPT call, e.g. MW/ or DL/…

Sounds like a software glitch. It may easier for you to change your name to Lionel than to get it fixed over the holidays.

Nik,

Why not move up to Lionel Richie, Lionel Messi et al.?
Take your time and think about it :slight_smile:

Hi Dominik,

Thanks for the QSO from GW/SW-002 on 28th December. I have a terrible memory for names so when I first spotted you I looked at your alert & posted your name as Lionel. That did not look right at all so I checked elsewhere & amended the spot.

I think this happens with some other activators as well when they are operating away from their home country. I don’t know what the answer is & it may well be easier to change your name to Lionel when you operate in Wales Hi!

73 & HNY,
