As an impatient mobile op, I'd like to make a suggestion to the K6JSS guys:
Even if we worked an hour before, you won't be a dupe for me, since I'll
be in a new county. My logging software won't care if we've already worked a
different K6JSS, it will treat you as would treat a mobile, counting it as
OK so long as it is a different county.
So if you are calling me, please just send the call. You don't need to add
the "/COUNTY" to your call. I'll get that when you send the exchange.
Unless there happen to be two of you calling at the same time :). Then I'll
figure out how to get you straightened out.
This applies when calling mobiles or obvious crackerjack operators. YMMV
may if you try this with less experienced ops, who may worry about working a
dupe.
Hope to work you all early, and work you often!

Final announcement that there will be 10 different stations using K6JSS,
the QRp ARCI club call during the contest. To differentiate between
locations, we'll be using the convention adopted for Mobiles, and
operate as K6JSS/COUNty, where COUNty is the four letter abbreviation of
the county in which we're operating. Don't be shocked if you work one
of these stations in SE Michigan, and 10 minute later you work another
in the Upper Peninsula - we won't be exceeding the speed of light in a
mobile - we're all fixed stations!
