REPLY:

Maybe I'm a little denser than normal today, but this makes no sense. 

It is true the rare ones don't have to call CQ, but that's because they sit on
one freq and run the pileup hour after hour. Even if things pause for a moment,
a short CQ starts the pileup again.  Never do they have to go looking for my
little CQ. Unless I go S&P'ing for them, I won't ever work them. 

So what is the meaning of the advice?
