Some do that on FT8, others call with the grid first. I remember one VHF contesting post encouraging to call with the report first to speed up QSOS Sent via the Samsung Galaxy A10e, an AT&T 4G LTE smartphone

I have only heard U.S. stations doing this and it wasconfusing the first time I heard it. You're correct about it starting a yearor so ago, are FTx QSOs made this way?John KK9AJim Brown K9YC wrote:Yes. But one very bad habit we need to nip in the bud is those who maketheir initial call with their complete exchange, covering up other callers.I first encountered it perhaps a year or so ago. I refuse to work them, andhave a macro for "only send your call." We need to track down the source ofthe software/sample macro files that are programmed to do this.73, Jim K9YC (was KU6W this weekend)  _______________________________________________CQ-Contest mailing listCQ-Contest at contesting.comhttp://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/cq-contest
