Mark,
 
I am really interested in adding this to a rove so please keep the comments on 
the reflector.  I have yet to use MSK144, so I am asking from ignorance.
 
Have you tried spelling out Rover as in VE7AFZ Rover?
 
Don, NL7CO

Hi:

I confirmed basic MSK144 functionality before the contest at my home station.   
That being said I encountered issues sending my full VE7AFZ/R call with WSJT-X 
during the contest.    

Taking another look at WSJT-X this morning I can send CQ VE7AFZ/R CN89

But the default RRR message seems to truncate the /R

I was able to work around this during my single MSK144 qso during the contest 
by using the free message function but I would be curious in hearing from other 
rovers who are running WSJT-X.    

I've also done some testing this morning with two sets of radios and computers 
this morning and it appears that a station responding to my CQ will also 
truncated the /R when replying by clicking on my CQ in the "band activity" 
window.  

I'd also be curious in hearing from those who worked rover stations using 
MSK144 during the contest.
