I copied running stations who sent the call at BOTH ends of the exchange, i.e.:

ME:   W1AA 599 CA CA W1AA DE W7TI

The advantage of this is that if a pileup is calling, the guy who unkeys 
last probably transmits on top of the start of W7TI's exchange.  By the end 
of the exchange, W1AA knows that W7TI came back to HIM and should respond 
in kind.  I like this, but of course it's longer to send.  However, the way 
I show above, not much longer.
