hi Phil - First wanted to thank you for finding me during your S&P stints!

Each time, you were pretty weak at my end (west US) - it took a little ESP 
for me to realize it was you! (It sure helps to lurk here and be familiar 
with the calls ;-) Chances are the callers were reacting first to the other 
station using your call, while hearing you just well enough to have a chance 
of acknowledgment, which may be why your CQs were not as successful.
