Claude also suggested we use W/F5BPL

Well, now I understand how you are running votes & elections over there in the
USA ... Did you say you are a democracy ? Pfmmm ...
So I am asking for a check of all votes & re-check of all counting because part
of my vote was not for W/F5BPL but for W/F5PBL.

So, now I am asking for your help. It is not at all the 1st time that the
suffix of my call is so reversed from PBL to BPL. I would like to know what's
wrong with it. Any English hidden joke ? Despite the fact that the mistake is
done by people from different countries and not only English speakers. Rather
interesting indeed. Some possible study for a psy or linguist.
I am not a member of the British Petroleum League but I agree that I am a life
member of the Boring People League.
Need a way to remind the suffix ? Well, let's say that our first QSO can be the
PreamBLe to a (possible) friendship ;o)
