My pet gripe is still those stations calling CQ. You call them. They

send a report.
I only had one station do that to me. I called him and he simply sent
a 2x3 "XXX DE YYY" back to me. I took that to be a clue of what he
wanted and punched my exchange button and he replied with his exchange.
But then I had to transmit a QSL to tell him that I got his age. Two
extra exchanges in total.
As usual, I was only having fun and not racing the clock, so there was
no harm done.
I think it is an OM running a psychology test to see how many times he
has to exchange call signs with you before you will given him an
exchange. Einstein once said that "Insanity is doing something over
and over and expecting different results." :-)
