When I move I tune quickly to see if the guy is already there so I can
answer him. Failing that, calling CQ seems like a productive thing to do.
I want to be doing something that helps my score and I want to stay on the
agreed frequency, and I want to advertise my presence so that the guy I'm
moving with can find me, so calling CQ sounds like just the right thing to
do.
I think you did just the right thing.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] QSY etiquette (NAQP)
I was fooling around back in NAQP CW. Working 40M, N2MM asked me to QSY to
15M. OK. I moved up to the specified freq but I did not know the
etiquette: who calls whom. I guessed that since I was the askee then I
could have the freq, so I started calling CQ. (It worked, sort of. K1ZZ
came back pretty quick. Then he worked N2MM, who was below ESP level here.)
Did I do right? For Single OP askee, what is the proper procedure for this
"pse work me on a new band" QSY?
73, Art K3KU
