[OhQP-mail] OHQP LOGGING BEST PRACTICES

[Mike Tessmer K9NW]

As Tim noted, it doesn't matter.  I've been doing CALL/**** for years
(N1MM+) in all QSO parties, mostly because it will show up in the check
call box that way and I can see if it's a dupe or not as I type the
callsign.  It works for me and it's never caused any problems with the log
checking.  (Also can get a quick glimpse of which, or in how many, counties
you've worked a given /m or /r)
