Default [Off Topic] QRA? QCX?

Don't know how old QCX is but Q-codes date back to 1912 -- see URL:

http://www.kloth.net/radio/qcodes.php

Many Q-Codes listed there as well

Dear friends: I have a doubt. All of my life (for me and the others
local Hams), QRA = Call sign.

Recently a colleage said me - No... Call sign is QCX - . I don't knew
QCX, but I found it searching the web, Q code listings says:

QRA = The name of my station is...
QCX = My full call sign is...

How old is QCX Q code?

Some stations (no Ham, of course) has a name and a call sign,
broadcasting, coastals , etc.

What do you think about it?
