David Myself and at least one other on the net today are primarily CW operators. I did not copy a full call sign, I copied a couple of letters on top of someone else's transmission. Had I copied a callsign I would certainly have tried to pull him in I am sure a CW call in would have worked just fine IF it had been timed to coincide with any of the many pauses that were left between transmissions.
