Gayle, When you hear a DX station, send your call. If he responds to you, send him 594 and thank you. That is all. If he has others calling him, you may need to send your call several times until he calls you back. Very simple.
Look for the band to open up to Europe between 10 am and 2 pm on 10, 15 and 20 meters. South America should open up from 2 to 6 pm or later on 10-20 meters. After that, Asia and Oceania will open up on 20 meters. Sometimes, if conditions are good, you may get an opening to Hawaii and Australia on 10 meters between 8 and 10 pm. Most of the DX stations have great antennas and run max power. So, you should have no problems hearing and working them. Towards the end of the contest, they will be looking for anything they can hear. But, the fun is to jump into the pileup. GL and have fun working DX stations.
