Very true Rick, and very frustrating. It often leads to the DX station 
QSYing to another band.

I also noticed that some stations, in order to be the first station 
calling, would start their call before the DX station would break. DUH. 
I was also amused at the number of stations that completed a QSO on the 
DX station's frequency while the DX station was working spilt.

I also notice similar things in other DX piles ups, not in a contest.  
These guys start sending their call, pause and when they don't hear the 
DX station calling them back, immediately start sending again.

I don't know if there is anything that can be done about this.  Maybe we 
could start a published list of LID operators? Of course, that might 
start a contest to see who can work their way to the top of the list.

And congratulations on a nice score for a limited time operation.
