DX-Cluster Callsign alert - wrong announcement

Hello CQRLOG,

I'd like to announce an interesting issue using DXCluster and Callsign alert.

I'am monitoring some callsigns, e.g. DL1AB.
Today suddenly I got a spot from DL1ABC!

It seems the last letter(s) of the callsign is not checked?

Hi Martin!

Can you reproduce this?
And with cqrlog --debug=1 > /tmp/debug.txt , please.

I made a quick look to source and if you do not have partial call alert checked it should not catch anything other than just the alert call:
The selection is processed in SQL, if that fails it is MariaDB bug (I do not think so).

I tried with "ii" (IIxWRTC) and "ON75" without partial callsign alert checked and did not get any alerts.

Hello Saku,

thanks for your advice to check this.

Today I searched for "TC60TRA", due to the fact "TC60TRAC" is on air.
And it happend again!

insert into call_alert(callsign,mode,band) values (:callsign,:mode,:band)
select max(id) from call_alert where (callsign='TC60TRA') and (band='') and (mode='')
select max(id) from call_alert where (callsign='TC60TRA') and (band='') and (mode='')
select * from call_alert order by callsign

Hi Saku,

I've found my mistake, I think:
"Allow partially callsign alert" was checked!
