- All, Agreed; updating the CQ macro is a plus. Adding the CQ to the end does make it easier to differentiate the caller from the call-ee. "CQ Test N2KI N2KI CQ" as an example. No need to spell out the

- I never liked this practice in CW. Seems I would always copy the CQ and miss the guy's call. I also don't like the "CQ NA AA4LR NA" for the same reason. Space? Why not a CR/LF? I had a couple of guys

- I don't like it on CW either, since TEST has fewer elements than CQ. Not so on RTTY, of course. CR/LF makes the line jump at the receiver end, unless using WriteLog. Space accomplishes the same purpo
