What I found strange was a couple of eastern Europeans sending calls only at 40+wpm. No CQ, no test, just calls. For the heck of it I called one and worked him. My bad. ;>)

... "test" at the end of a CQ completely throws off the rhythm of
answering a CQ. If you need that "test" to tell you it's time to call,
you need to go back to contesting school!
Please explain the perceived difference between "TEST K9YC" and "K9YC
TEST". Why is the latter a time-waster?
