Logging Alternate/Past Callsigns

Over the years, many SKCC members have changed their call signs. Several members also have one or more alternative call signs.

Some members use the same SKCC membership number with more than one call sign. SKCC membership records always identify one call sign as the "Primary" call and all others as an "Alternate" call for the member.

When you enter a call sign in the Log Entry window's Call field, the program searches for a member with a matching "Primary" call sign. If a matching record is found, then the membership information for that callsign is used.

However, if a membership record with a matching "Primary" callsign is not found, then the program searches the membership records for a member with a matching "Alternate" call sign. If a member record is found, the program will present a dialog box requesting that you select which call sign you wish to use for the log entry.

Select which call sign you wish to use for the log entry by selecting the appropriate button.
