Anyone know what happened to Nino? He has been conspicuous by his absence on 14.195 MHz . . . not that I miss the incessant jamming, arguing and swearing....
There was a station (semi-rare) on 20 SSB awhile ago asking for people to call with their last two only. He was working simplex and there was no DX Net...
I would do it. I agree that "last two" is not a good thing to do but before I knew better I used to throw out "Oscar Quebec" quite often in pile-ups. I found...

Well thank God I have my Honor Roll on CW so don't have to worry about last two, at least I think so, as have never heard a CW opr call for last two. Rod WC7N ...
Paul I've had this happen several times. I just use my full callsign. Several stations went ahead and worked me "W3UR your 59". Others have said I'm only ...
I have heard the same with a DX station asking for the last 2 and taking a list then calling the stations he had put on his list. Of course someone will come...

I don't have much experience CW DXing, Just 80 DXCC entities worked, mostly mopped up in contests. I figured I might pick up a few new ones and build my code...
Hmmmmm. If you want to build code skills, you need to do more than "try" to pick up on call signs. In fact, the best way of learning to copy call signs is...
I really don't know of a correct manner to "not to ragchew"; when I CQ and somebody starts ragchewing I simply return "tnx" and the usual "73" followed by a...

... If you don't want to rag-chew, don't call CQ. You'll get an EX:CW OP from the military or coast guard every time. These guys can send and receive CW at...
If your goals include (1) Improve CW Speed (2) collect callsigns (3) more DXCC countries (4) no rag chewing, name, qth etc YOU ARE A CONTESTER and don't...

I'm not sure of your goal. IF! your goal is to work MORE DXCC entities, do NOT call CQ. Watch DX Cluster and TUNE TUNE TUNE. Rare or semi rare DX is NOT...
