Cool! I assume we can have "duplicate" words (e.g, G3AND, WA1AND)? How about one letter words (PJ4A) and two letter words (AA1ON)?

______________________________________________________________THE SJDXA FALL 2022 WORD CHALLENGEDates: November 1 through December 31, 2022GOAL: To work as many calls that include a full word in the callsign suffix.RULES:
- Words must be from the “English Dictionary”. No foreign language words.
- Words must be two letters or more in length.
- Words must be entirely in the suffix of the call.
- Words must not be “Proper Names/Nouns” unless there is a dual meaning (see examples).
- You can use this online English reference https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english
Examples: WA2PAM is not allowed because PAM is a proper name and has no definition as a word.WA2BOB is allowed because it has a dictionary definition as a verb (bob for apples)WA2XON cannot count for “ON”. XON is not a word. You must use the entire suffix.WA2BLE cannot count for ABLE since the only letters in the suffix are BLE (not a word)Further examples will be provided if necessary.GOALS:Certificates will be provided with endorsements for accomplishing “25 QSO” levels. (25,50,75,100 etc) with no ceiling.Have fun!73!de Bob Schenck, N2OOPresident SJDXA!GO SJDXA!
