In this era of "working stations from the bandmap" which is full of
garbage from a cluster, stations call blind without ever confirming
(copying) the call of the station they are working. A station calling
CQ better see his own callsign print correctly or there is a high
chance that he may end up working another NIL - particularly if he is
one that likes the B4 message.
Perhaps it's time that contest sponsors require *both* calls as part
of the exchange.

This is from the guys who count milliseconds and want the exchanges to
be as short as possible, as in the dash and no dash between numbers
conversations that seem to go on forever after every big contest.
Just my $.02 worth. In today's world that's worth about 20 bucks!
