Want RCKskimmer to spot you during a contest?  Follow one rule in
formatting your CQ call:

Make certain to transmit a space (" ") after both your call letters and the
key word (CQ, TEST, or QRZ).  This will usually mean transmitting a space
at the end of the line.



CQ transmissions during a contest might resemble the following:



"QRZ WZ7I " (note space at end of line)

"AA5AU TU WZ7I CQ "  (note space at end of line)

"CQ DE WZ7I "  (note space at end of line)



(During non-contest periods the keyword needs to proceed your call letters.)


Wes, WZ7I
