I did a presentation for *QSO Today Expo* that touches on some of these

*"Choosing Your Ideal Callsign"*

   - Video- https://www.qsotodayhamexpo.com/player.html?link=NTI2MTQyODk0
   - Slideshow- tiny.cc/qte-call
   - Call Comparision Spreadsheet- tiny.cc/callcompare (please note
   callsign weighting are multiplied by a constant to make them compatible
   with other characteristics being evaluated)
