[RTTY] RTTY CQ or QRZ

[Dick]

Claude VE2FK,

Good comment and observation. <http://www.qsl.net/w3df/qcodes.html>

I just changed my contest run macro that acknowledges my report, logs
the QSQ and used to end with QRZ to CQ.

Mine has been that way for long time based on observations of other
RTTY contesters.

Thanks for the tip!

Hello Group.

Still wondering why guys use QRZ when they want to say CQ

QRZ = Who is calling me
CQ   = General call

If I hear someone sending QRZ, I will wait because he may heard
someone calling him?   but if he send CQ I will reply.
