Hi.

  Brilliant idea! I thought the world had gone mad. Even common old EU 
stations when returning to a CQ on RTTY
come back with 599 73  and that's it!  I don't even bother to 
acknowledge such stations now.  My CQ macro now
has    CQ CQ de G3LDI  If you don't want a chat, then don't bother to 
respond!

  I think the modern amateur has caught the DX bug and thinks that he is 
also a DX station working pile-up style!

73 de Roger, G3LDI ( in Luddite mode.... :-) )
