[VHFcontesting] Contest contacts on 222 and 1296

Or better yet, before you QSY, ask "is there anybody else out there before  
I go?"
 
Not only will you perhaps get an extra qso, but also another guy who is  
able to run the bands at the same time.

During  constests on 222 MHz hear a lot of guys out several hundred miles 
(mostly 2's  and 3's) who are in such a hurry running the bands with a local 
that they miss  working me in EM96. When running the bands listen?for a few 
seconds before  QSYing you don't know who might be hearing you.
