Good point Bill,
 
Think I'll change it to version 1.
 
This time I used
 
TU XX1XX
DF4WC QRZ
 
in memory of ZC4LI (thought this was the way he confirmed,
unfortunately I'm not sure, though having 141 QSOs in
my log.. maybe anyone is having a transcript??)
 
Andy, DF4WC/N6NNA

REPLY:

I have a different take on that.

Which is best:

S55O TU W6WRT CQ
or
TU S55O W6WRT CQ

I vote for the first one because it helps avoid confusion. Often under
QRM and QRN situations there will be two stations who both think they are
working me. If they hear the TU first, they are likely to log me
immediately and QSY. If I was actually working the other station, that's an
NIL.
