Hi, Pete (and the group), Is the 8th position ID character included in call sign routing to individuals? If I have KN4AQ and KN4AQ^^A both registered (which I do, with ^ meaning the space character), are they treated totally separately? For example: KN4AQ used Repeater A, then sat there monitoring. An hour later KN4AQ^^A used Repeater B, then continued to monitor. Another hour later, someone on a distant repeater attempts call sign routing to KN4AQ. Would that call be routed to Repeater A or Repeater B? Sorry for appearing pedantic about it, but I'm looking for crystal clarity! 73, Gary KN4AQ
