[CQ-Contest] CQ pattern in contest - what's your vote?

[Tonno Vahk]

Which CQ pattern do you like to use in contest and which do you find most
pleasant when working S&P?

1. TEST ES5TV ES5TV

2. ES5TV ES5TV TEST

I have thought about it and tried both. We always have argument about it in
our contest team;))
I prefer to have TEST at the end - it seems useless in the beginning but in
the end it tells the station who stumbles on you that you are calling CQ. If
he just hears your callsign he does not know if you're CQing or just calling
someone. So seems logical to have it in the end.

I would appreciate your votes to settle this question for good.

Another question is that maybe it would be good to use longer more "CQ-like"
CQ to attract casual DXers in those long contest hours. They might be scared
and not answer so short and prompt calling...
