[CQ-Contest] Skimmer, etc....

Some folks have operating smarts and experience, and others don't.

For example, while operating multi and having the occasional idle op 
listening in to my run, it never ceases to amaze me how many comment, "I 
didn't know you can press the ENTER key before you finish typing the 
callsign..."
