I agree with Hank.

But also, when I get a conversational response to a contest CQ, I try to be
nice and send back something that at least gives them a response in kind,
and hopefully they will feel welcome to the contest, something like:

QSL BOB GOOD COPY NAME JEFF JEFF QTH VIRGINA CITY NV 73 THX AND HAVE FUN DE
W7RN QRZ

Just takes a few seconds really. They usually get the hint that I need to
move on. - jeff wk6i
