This practice has been in use long before packet. It is a way to control your pileup. It has only gotten worse with instant packet pileups.

It appears to me that many of the big rare contest stations are maximizing their

running stations should be required to ID at least once every some number of Qs. I 
realize that assisted is a different category, but the guys out there who don't 
play my computer vs yours will continue to diminish in number if it's no fun...
