Some CooL ThoTs on HoW NoT to RuN a Frequency

During any given radiosport contest, we spend an inordinate amount of time look for stations
(hopefully multipliers) running a frequency.  The idea is to "brave the pileup", slip the callsign
in once and receive a contest exchange immediately in return.  Would that it be that easy.  

All too often we end up chasing run stations that simply do NoT HAVE a CLUE how to actually
run a frequency with any kind of efficiency.  After thinking it through a list emerged on HoW NoT
to run a frequency.  Here are some examples:

• Wait only 1-Second between CQ calls
  It takes me at least 1.5-seconds to press the F4 key to send you my callsign.
  
  
  
  
• Make 10+ QSOs without sending us your callsign.
  Many contests require sending your callsign for every QSO
  or every 3-QSOS.
  
  
  
  
  
• Call for "WQ6?" and end up working KB4LID instead.
  
  
  
  
• Working too close to the band edge (Ex: 7.299) - to work you, we risk
  an O-O transmitting out-of-band violation.
  
  
  
  
  
• Signing a callsign not indicating the ACTUAL area you are from: (Ex: a KH7 in AZ)
  Some RTTY contests REQUIRE signing the call area you are actually in. 
  Ex: KH7XX/W7 if you are operating from Arizona.
  
  
  
  
  
• When you have a pile-up of stations, someone asks you to work them on another band or mode and you leave us STRANDED to satisfy his request.  Should we STAY or should we GO?
  
  
  
  
  
• Calling CQ when you already have 7+ callers frantically calling in.
  
  
  
  
  
• Running 35-WPM Cw and wondering why nobody is coming back to your
  CQ S55SS call.  When you QRS to 28-WPM, suddenly you are flooded with
  calling stations - GO Figure.
  
  
  
  
  
• NoT pronouncing your callsign slowly and succinctly.
  Bottom line - if we can't understand you, we either cannot work you or we put
  the wrong callsign in the log and we both get dinged with a NIL (NoT-in-Log)
  mistake and lose QSO credit.
  
  
  
  
• When running RTTY, always prefix the QSO exchange with the caller's callsign,
  lest some other station (with perfectly decoded copy) thinks you are working them.
  
  
  
  
• NoT understanding or using R-I-T to tune off-frequency calling stations to work
  them and then be done with them.  Using the {ClearRit} macro (N1MM+) when
  sending TU QRZ? resets the RX-VFO for the remaining callers who ARE on frequency.
  Using the Stereo-RTTY method makes it more aurally easier to tune in stations.
  
  
  
  

The above points are simply the most OBVIOUS ways NoT to Run a Frequency.
As more ideas are encountered a "Part-2" will be created along this topic line.
