Is there an easy way to allow entering numbers in the NAME field?
I tried a few things in the Exchange Format Setup but didn't 
succeed. I even tried changing NAME to GRID, which accepts numbers 
but only after two starting letters... 
Reason to ask is, this week the Thursday night NCCC Sprint had a 
variation in the exchnage to "use a previous Field Day call you 
have operated from" as your NAME. The Writelog NA Sprint contest 
doesn't allow entering any numbers in the NAME field. I recall this 
issue also occurred in a NAQP contest where someone used the name R2D2.
Yes, there are workarounds, but maybe someone has an easy change 
to a standard log.

Workarounds: 
1. type RTWODTW0
2. type name NOT, log the QSO, then in the log window edit the name to 
the proper one - numbers are allowed while editing.
