Not a big deal and easy for us to say Oh you want 1640 and their cool swerve, they are at FRC1640@

And you could get carried away and do all the other countries, it's just entries in a mail forwarder. Bytes in a lookup table are cheap.

Plus it would kill off the 200 messages a year "Need to find a contact for team 1234. FRC1234@
