RBN Wildcards

Hi Petr,
 
It just occurred to me that it may be possible to send a wildcard with the "Watch For:" callsign in preferences. I think it would be a good idea if possible as I could use ZL* and see which countries could spot New Zealand stations even if I was not calling CQ. I would be grateful if you could look into this please Petr and see if it can be done.

Hi Graeme,
 
this should work as well, I forget to mention it in the changelog. If you enter ZL* into watch for field, it will show all station with ZL prefix.

Hi Petr,
 
Yes it works very well. I really appreciate that option. If you centre ZL on a great circle map you can see that most of the world is over many Km of water and it is so useful to see where the best direction from ZL spots is to point your beam as every country is a long haul for us.
 
Opět děkuji
