I hung out at W5NOR's PSK tent for a bit.  Didn't operate but saw and
heard about several instances of the same thing happening.  One of the
other hams present bemoaned the fact that there was no set standard
for exchanges that was the same over all modes, to which I replied
"There *is*!"

Hey, but it's Field Day, so you have to believe there are many
operators operating for the first time ... it's the Elmering that
appears lacking.
