I've always Interpreted the suffix as the first letter after the numeral. Thus, N9AVY will only count as an "A" . Of course with a call like KZ3T there is only one choice of a suffix. :-)
Maybe thus needs to be better defined in rules, but I guess there will always be those who look for shortcuts. (no offense)

Well, that sucks!!! When I see use the suffix of a call , that usually means any letter in the suffix but I do see where it states ‘In general’ — But the suffix means ‘The ending’ So, WA3RLJ the suffix is ‘RLJ’ —
In other organizations I’m in the suffix is ‘any’ letter after the number!!!
Wow!!!

From the webpage:
2. Use the suffix of each station's callsign to collect letters to spell out the names of countries, states, provinces, or territories listed on the worksheets. In general the suffix letter is the first letter after the last number in a callsign (in the spirit of the Bingo and WOTMC endorsements).

Mike,
I appreciate it, but the ‘U’ must immediately follow the number in your callsign. You’d be good for a ‘G’, but not a ‘U’.
Either way, I’ll be looking for you!
73 es tnx,
Mike

Surely, there must be a W4 out there with a "U"suffix as in "U'all"

I need one 'U' callsign to complete my SASAC.
In my log, I have AA9UF, CG9UN, K6UAS, KA8UNI, KC9UR, KJ6UF, N2UJN, W6U.
I'm off work until 2 January and I'd love to finish this one up. Any 'U's
who are reading this and can work a sked, please let me know. 20 and 40
meters are best for me, but I can do 10 - 160.
73,
Mike
