Charlie,
Good work.
Going by the numbers (1-0) don't take into consideration propagation.
Numbers are no longer connected to geographical location. You know W1,2
and 3 have different propagations as W4s.
Where do I belong? My call is W1 but located in W4 land. Yes I can try
KE1F/4 when 4s
The US call districts are still mostly populated by the right numbers,
though this is a good point, especially when taken worldwide.
Calling one 1 and then one 2 and one 3 and so forth has the advantage
of NOT taking into account propagation (you're not trying to get only
1's, 2's, 3's before
Peter,
I'm never more frustrated than when I'm losing propagation and the DX
takes 15 4's then 15 5's then 15 6's then 15 7's then ***permanent
fade*** ... I would have had 4 other shots to work them if they were
only taking 1 per district. Guess it's a matter of personal
preference.

Peter, you make a good point.
Regarding 3Y0X, I think it probably goes to show that the raw skill of
the operators at pileup handling is much more important than any
subtle variations in technique. I certainly had a lot easier time
getting through to them (3 bands) than to KH8SI (zero bands).

The DX just has to be strict about who gets to get through. The
pileup should be held up until WK7 gets to get through, or the DX says

I think long-term blacklisting is too harsh. I don't think that the
people who are calling out of turn are necessarily doing it because
they're bad people. I think it's because they know it increases,
rather than decreases their chance of getting through.
I'm OK with short-term blacklisting
