Good luck with trying to get folks to ID.   In my mind my time is just as 
valuable as theirs.  Why should I have to sit and wait while some jack leg 
FINALLY decides to follow the rules.  It can get very frustrating.

 I noticed the same thing in my very few minutes. Though most of the offenders 
seemed to be unfamiliar calls, i.e. inexperienced newcomers who we shouldn't be 
beating up on.
Perhaps we just need lots of people shouting  "what's your call?"

 I noticed the same.  I was tempted to make some recordings and send them to 
the sponsor to see what would happen.  But I didn't.  I hope they will consider 
putting the kibosh on this before it gets out of hand.

Assuming people already know your callsign because of a spot is minor league.  
Please don't do that.
