I can't see any need for a DE in either a contest or DX run 
situation. I can't imagine how it can contribute positively to the objective.

Ragchew, yes. Otherwise, no.

BUT - I make sure there is a space before and after my callsign in 
the buffer. Also, only one call in the buffer. If I need more I just 
press the buffer key more, and they all chain together.

No need for the K, BK, or KN either - the other station knows what to 
do when your carrier drops.
