Ah there is the difference .... I use the reply (HISCALL) exchange (MYCALL).
This reason I do this as it let others know I am the run station so they stick
around to work me or can move on faster if that have already logged me. As
usual there are many different styles of operating to be used

When I am in RUN-CQ mode, I always reply with (Hiscall) exch. (Hiscall)
because If there are many callers, QRM, it is important to confirm to
whom I have sent the exchange. ex: Hiscall 599 001 001 Hiscall
Then, I confirm with (TU Hiscall de MYCALL CQ) Why send it again...
Already sent twice...

I agree with Bill the CALL TU helps me make sure I have the QSO, as I have been
caught a few times. This a little slower but I believe it improves my log
accuracy overall.

REPLY:
I do it as N6PE TU because often there will be two stations, both of whom think
they worked me. If I do the TU first, they will both be gone, but only one is
really in the log. Sending the call sign first gives them both a look at who I
really logged.
