That is in the works, John. I am allowing her to learn and make her own decisions about things. Simply giving it all to her upfront doesn’t encourage learning. Nor does belittling a little girl, as was done in a previous message.
Thanks for the advice.

Not saying anyone did anything wrong but if possible it is better to make a external speaker out cable to go into an line input in, ideally an audio recorder, or less ideally a voice recorder. I just got a Zoom H1 for this purpose. You may also need an audio splitter.

Hope, who is 9 years old and was standing on the beach, heard his callsign and expected that it was on the recording. I am so sorry that for the sake of AMSAT and Ham Radio in general that a 9 year old wasn’t able to write down the callsign while holding two radios and an antenna. Since she is so inept, perhaps she should quit the hobby altogether. I look forward to meeting you face to face, so you can belittle my daughter to her face.
Once Paul confirmed the callsign, we were able to make it out on the recording.

Whoah! Thank you for the ruling Chief Justice Bob.
Next time we want to scare kids away from ham radio, we'll be sure to give you a call.
Did you read the part that they had the contact, but a spectator covered the rest of the call sign on the recording by asking a question?
What should they have done? Tell the spectator to "shut up, I'm doing ham radio!"? Great PR for the hobby.

Basic concept....
If YOU did not copy the call sign, then YOU did not make the contact !!!
