So long as you have at least two repetitionsof the CQ key-words (CQ, TEST, FD, UP1 at least) and two repetitions of your call, you'll be heard and spotted, with the proviso that if you stay on the sa

It seems to me that the more efficient practice in general would be to use shorter calls sent more often, and it kind of saddens me to hear that the RBN might encourage longer calls sent less often.

I also agree the shorter calls are fine for skimmer. What I think is happening is when you see yourself only announced very rarely, you are not seeing skimmer spots only real people spots. Dan KI6X _

Hi Al: I just use "TEST KD4D KD4D" and use escape to skip the second callsign if the rate is decent. Works fine with the skimmer. "CQ TEST" is longer and unnecessary.... Get on sometime, monitor the
