[CQ-Contest] SS SSB And Your Callsign In The Exchange

[Peter Voelpel]

Hi Paul,

What I don´t understand.
Why do you always question the rules of a contest, especially if you don´t
even participate?

You want the report taken away from the WPX exchange and here the callsign,
I don´t see you on 3830 on both contests and Google search results in no
active contesting at all with your callsign.

So what is driving you?

Peter

My question is - why MUST the call be part of the exchange when it's already
"exchanged" as part of the QSO initiation process?  The second call exchange
serves little or no useful purpose - it is effectively a handicap imposed on
all QSOs.
