Hi Bill:
The way it is designed, it logs first name as a minimum. The thinking is that WILLIAM is better than nothing. When he says his name is Bill, simply overtype it. This is easily done by typing {Ctrl+A} to select the contents of the field, then just typing BILL.
After you work the guy once, and if you have COPY FROM PREVIOUS QSOs set up to copy name (it is on by default), it will get NAME from the previous QSO(s) and not the callbook.
Same deal with City.
City and State are considered part of the QTH, and there is currently no facility to select one and not the other. Of course the guy could have moved or is portable, in which case ALL of the location information could be invalid. Again, the thing to do is delete or overtype the incorrect information. Assuming the guy is operating from home, isn't the City going to be correct a healthy majority of the time?
Comments pse.
Tnx & 73,
Dennis WN4AZY
