I also noticed this on a couple of M stations. Likely they had another radio
w/op running while they scouted for Qs. I erased a couple before they came
back and had to scramble when they started their exchange.
I didn’t dare try alternating CQs with that kind of exchange. I can’t do it
very well even with short exchanges on cw so hopefully no one had that problem
with me.
I still hate the cluster pileups where everyone is on the same frequency and
it’s near impossible to pull one out. Luckily there are a few who know to drop
their call in again and off we go….

Subject: [CQ-Contest] SO2R in the SS
This weekend I worked in the SS a few stations that I assumed were ronning
SO2R. They called CQ. I answered - no reply. I called again - no reply.
Just as I was gong to move the VFO, they came back. Signals were LOUD so I
assume they were copying me just fine as I had been working stations mostly
with just one call.
I think it is kind of rude to assume if you are working someone on radio 1,
stations should just sit and wait for you to finish and come back to
whoever is calling you on radio 2. Especially with the long exchange in the
SS and you are sending about 20 WPM. 73
