In CQ Worldwide "victor three x-ray" (or "V3X" on CW) will sort itself out in a very short time, and will pay dividends for the rest of the contest.  (Also, knowing what you're up to down in Belize, like others have said, you have to start laying that groundwork sooner or later, right?).

I think your obligation is to transmit your call clearly (and frequently).  You have no obligation to how the other station copies it if you send it clearly and you are loud.  Those QSOs won't be removed from YOUR log.

I am so looking forward to this weekend I can SMELL it.

Quick question...
I have the call V31XX, but am allowed to use V3X for the CQWW contest.  I tried the call 
out last night in the Sprint with mixed results.  Although the call is shorter, quite a 
few guys struggled to get the call right.  Some wanted to make me a VE3, others added 
stuff to the suffix, etc.
Given a choice which call would you use?  Any comments are welcome.
