[CQ-Contest] Re: S&P..require some CQing?

[Salina Physician Anesthesia]

I do mostly S&P as I really get worn out trying to sort out replies, 
especially when propagation is just right to JA and Eu.  There is a bit of 
embarrasment when I have to ask for replies.....  Won't win any contests, 
but have a lot of fun. 

My big complaint is the rare DX who never calls CQ (maybe for the same 
reason), but runs up the band doing S&P with the CQ guys.  Occasionally I 
figure out the tuning pattern and park up a bit and call him, but works only 
occasionally. 

Guess you can't work them if you don't hear them, but can't work them if 
they can't hear you.
