[CQ-Contest] SSB Pileup Contest?

[Stan Zawrotny]

Sorry, my misunderstanding. A link to what is currently being done with CW
would have helped. I missed the reference to a convention. And I focused on
how to work a pileup as instruction, not as a test of skill.

To me, when running with a pileup, a callsign is a callsign is a callsign.
To maintain my rate, I am copying a bunch of letters. Sometimes I recognize
one I know, but in general, the letters can be anything. You could use your
CW list for the SSB. I copy many of the same ops in multiple modes
(including FT8/FT4).

But anyone here could provide a list of callsigns worked on SSB from their
logs. The same is true, to a lesser extent, for the digital.
