-Immediately, as cited by Glenn, W0GJ, on K1N, somehow-- probably via a
remote station that will be loud to K1N--a loud call gets the K1N op's
attention, but then when the actual contact is made, the transmitted signal
is weaker. The suggestion is that a remote station is used to get the
partial or whole call sign acknowledged and then the actual contact goes on
from a much less effective station location. This must be secret, too?
What does that have to do with remote, Charles? This practice has been
around since when the internet was not yet invented. Let a friend make
that first (loud) call before you continue (weaker) yourself.
But I think it's easier to blame remote ops for everything bad today. ;-)
