I had exactly that experience with WE3C and K3WW -- Q5 here, but each time I 
tried, they were calling CQ again before I had finished sending my call. Too 
bad -- these were 9 point Q's for high power. 

And you can't work an S4 station through an S8 noise level either. I've been 
on the noisy end of that one too, and it's no fun.
