Hi Mike,

we are not hear to determine how operators at a DXpedition site choose to operate, we are not aware of conditions on the ground. If they feel that they are getting optimum rates without calling CQ then that is their choice. Remember that calling CQ from a rare entity can result in a passband 100% full of pile up, they may have tried it and decided it doesn't help the QSO rate.

But what about them receiving all these calls in the blind?  Isn't that going to interfere when they try to respond to people who can't hear them?

OK...so it appears the CQ every 5 trasnmissions is NOT enforced unless Fox clicks the "More CQs" box. We'd be a lot better off if this was always forced and Hounds were restricted to only answer CQ's. This explains why we don't see the CQ's and calling blind is normally necessary (as long as you can see KH7Z that is).

Hi Mike,

it should be reasonable to assume that if the Baker Is. operators are not enforcing regular CQ calls then they have plenty of callers to keep the to-be-worked queue populated with more stations than Tx slots and a QSO rate that is high.
