A Little Hint

• I work SPLIT always.   QSX +1 for CW,  QSX +5 for SSB
• You don't need the extra power/punch.  I do.
• So, if I cannot copy your call, it's one of two reasons
• You're too weak anyway (propagation, etc..)
• You're overpowering your radio(too much  mic gain, too much ALC)  Make the adjustments -- Lower the gain, Lower the ALC!

A Hint:

If I am repeatedly asking for your call, read above.
