Gary,
I disagree in part. If the DX station starts with W1 (which they often do), the
W1's haven't
always gotten there fast enough. Hence by the time a W1 gets there, he's now on
W2! So
this plan has its faults. Also, with so many guys out of their original call
area, it really gets
messy. Lots of W2s in FL and many W6s are on the Right Coast. To tell you the
truth, if
everyone only replied when the DX station called their call (or correct parts
of same), things
would go lots faster. Continuously calling and calling out of turn are serious
impediments to
the DX station working stations faster.

Great words of wisdom Wayne that I wish more Dx
Pedition operators would follow. By the numbers is
great if your in 1 land - not so great for the guy in 0
(zero) land. Many times by the time the DX gets to
zero land band conditions have changed. Sometimes
you hear them begin with zero but not very often.
Continents and parts of continents (west, east, central
regions or coasts would make better QSO rates
especially if timed with peaked propagation openings.

A DXpedition operator who says "JA Only" and
complains about calls by others in Asia is an
inexperienced DXpedition operator. Generally,
"JA"means "Asia." Further, working strictly by counties
is simply not acceptable. Most of us who have tried it
won´t ever do it again. Numbers don´t work, either.
Working continents (with flexibility) is the most
effective, if you HAVE to subdivide the pileup. There
are a number of other equitable ways, as well.

I agree with Michail. Seldom, if ever, does the
DXpedition call for RA's, UA's, etc. Maybe the
DXpeditions want to take notice.

Hello Charles,
Here, in UA9, from every DX-pedition we always can
hear
"onlly EU" and "only JA" and sometimes we even
have no chance to work this
DX in time of good propagation
"UA9 -You are not EU!". "UA9 -You are not JA!"
Something like this :(
