[RTTY] I may have missed something

[Jeff Stai]

I've seen it. I have done it. He probably saw or heard you in there but a
stronger station kept winning. Finally at some point he looked at his
decoder windows and realized your call had printed, and maybe he was having
no luck pulling out any other calls out of the scrum at that moment, so he
called you.

As far as asking callers to stay on frequency, if he is able to acquire
multiple calls on a CQ, he needs for you to stay where you last called
from. If you move trying to find a new place to call from, he won't hear
you.
