1 - almost impossible to find a run frequency without stepping on someone's 
toes, except on 10 meters
One memorable moment for me was a K2 station that graciously gave me his 20M run frequency late Sunday afternoon. Said he had worked 300 Q's on that frequency, but just got the call that the spare ribs were done!

5 - keep working the same stations on the same bands that we have worked 
countless times before



Curiously that is one of the things I like about it. Run rates were low enough Sunday afternoon that I was able to celebrate with various dx stations "Nice to see you again for N bands!" It's especially fun when N=6
