Yes, and I've often been able to do that. But it isn't pretty when you're not fast enough to get the full call.

With callsign type-ahead, a standard feature in most contest loggers, it's not necessary to type the call in full before starting to send the exchange.

For example, typing W 3 L Send P L sends W3LPL (followed by the exchange) without interruption - so long as you type P L before the keyer finishes sending  W3L

The relevant factor is how quickly can you type the calling station's call into the entry window and hit send.
