[CQ-Contest] signing TEST at the end...not so bad

I don't think signing TEST at the end is necessarily so bad.

If I am calling CQ, I might send: CQ KR2Q TEST or even just KR2Q TEST.

When someone tunes across me and all they hear is KR2Q, how do they know if calling
someone or if I'm calling CQ?  Adding TEST at the end lets everyone know I'm looking a Q.

No?

And really, saying that it messes up RBN/skimmer...really....that matters?  You're supposed
to be copying stuff yourself, right?  Maybe that was a joke?
