Signing protocol for Canada/USA

W6ABM Member Profile All Messages By This Member #602 Interesting discussion about YS call sign use in Canada and visa versa. ? Here is the best statement on it that I’ve seen: ”WSJT-X should also understand that CEPT rules do not recognize a suffix - only a prefix (e.g. F/). The only case I know where a suffix is used is with the (ancient) USA-Canada treaty that specifies a suffix for licensees of those two governments when operating in the other country. "Prefix only except for USA/CA" is not a particularly difficult rule to 肠辞诲别.” 73, ... Joe, W4TV

So in PE, you would identify as "WT4BT/VY2". You do not need to specify more precisely than the province or territory you will be operating in. ? ? ? ? ? Adam MacDonell, RAC Office Manager ? ? ? ? ?

Just more work for the operator/log-keeper.
