Yes, and when I send QRZ? or AGN? when I don't get their callsign the first 
time, don't send my call, just yours.  Invariably, my call comes through 
perfect and theirs is garbled.  As many have said before "I know my call, I 
need yours."  Make a buffer with JUST your call in it.

Same with the exchange, the 599 is not needed in the repeat of the number 
(unless the number is 599 :-)  73
