DX-ing Dilemma
Listen, listen & listen – when we are exactly calling the DX station?
It means we should know the DX callsign, what is he said or asked for?
– Is he CQing directly to beaming on specific target (continent, entity, number, zone dll) or directly to call someone’s else Is he working on split and monitoring in another frequency?
I found several cases as an example:
-Case #1 – Listen, listen, listen for a weak DX signal. Actually it is already heard, but i am afraid when i am calling it will useless, otherwise I still hope his signal is going strong and clear.
Listen, listen, another listening finally the DX station is faded away due poor propagation, even QSY or QRT. I am not lucky!
Case #2 – I heard DX very weak and QSB, and i called them. (It might be) heard and being answered, i called back spontaneous frantically when a zoo big pileup with a report and thank you.
After the DX station continued with calling another station – QRZ ? Suddenly i started adoubt and felt curious, did he copied my callsign correctly? Should i called him back instead in a mess pile up it was not easy and people got angry. I did feel unpleasant to the DX station.
Any tips?
