VR10 prefix

I believe that it should be "Victoria Radio Number Ten" because when you copy the callsign on HF like P29, A51 and so on, the sender will say "number twenty nine" or "number fifty one".

Ya, that would be remarkably funny and awkward to explain VR2 and VR10 through SSB audio.

Haha, for my personal perference, I would stick with the VR2 because I don't want to open the new email and eqsl account again which this prefix will be only valid for a year.  In fact, there are not too many people around the world know the history about Hong Kong.  Well, perhaps we need to tell a story about the "First Opium War"  back in 1834 to 1843 then.

"In 1842, the Qing authorities sued for peace, which concluded with the Treaty of Nanjing negotiated in August of that year and accepted in 1843. In the treaty, China agreed to open several low-tariff trade ports to Britain, yielded Hong Kong to Britain, and allowed British missionaries to work in China."
