I suspect people do it because it can work. I have heard DX stations lecture the pile about not calling while working someone. So then a QSO ends "LU5DX TU W7AAA 599.." which means the DX station was

Hi Larry. Yes, tail-end calling is widely accepted if it's done correctly. But just a few know when to fire their calls effectively using this technique. I believe Tom N4KG is the best tail-end calle

There are a very few that are really good at that sort of thing (I wish that I could do it). I can usually tell if the station is one those kind of operators. But most do not distinguish that scenari

There may be another scenario in the exchange outlined below. The running station may write several callsigns down after he says "QRZ?". Then, after working one, he may call the next on his little li

In my younger days and with a better station I used to do that all the time. But I've gotten older, and crappyer station. Still happens, just not as often anymore Joe WB9SBD Sig The Original Rolling

It is usually obvious when that mode of operation is being done. Usually a DX operation rather than contest in my experience. I have not seen it on CW that I recall but fairly often on SSB. Latecomer

Ah, yes. Pile-up management. I did that at K2M/W3WH back in July. Don't know how good I was at it, but it seemed to work out pretty well. Could get 3 or 4 or even as many as 8 stations between the ho

In the Sweepstakes, you need to send *your* call as part of the exchange. I know it would be a major change - the exchange would become longer, rates would go down - BUT - they you would have a good

Why is the RTTY Roundup so named? If I read the rules, all digital modes should have equal standing, i.e., RTTY (200 Hz or so wide), PSK-31 (30 Hz), BPSK-63 (about 70 Hz), etc. Should it not be calle

Why is it so named? Because it's alliterative? Because the name was never changed as the digital modes were added? Tradition? Because? Why not? 73, ron w3wn Why is the RTTY Roundup so named? If I rea

Hank, If we must use only the most "modern" communications modes, then voice contesting should be immediately discontinued.  Voices have been around for perhaps a million years or more.   Come to thi
