I completely agree from the perspective of penalties. Lately I have
taken to purposely not working stations where there is the possibility
of working the wrong station or miscopy. The penalty imposed by
organizers is greater than the missed Q. I ascribe to the system Tree
suggests:
CQ K6XT
N6TR
N6TR report
K6XT report
TU (test or call or whatever)
The only time penalty is my QSO partner sending my call once. Then we
both know who has been worked. Completely resolves the nearly colocated
CQer and off frequency replier issues.

Actually what Ken sends me is:
me: CQ TEST N6RK N6RK
Ken: N6RK N6RO
me: N6RO 5NN SV
ken: 5NN EB
or sometimes: 5NN EB KB:-)
Ken's extremely strong signal tips me off as to who is
calling, so I am used to this by now.
