I do know that what happens whenever I finish a QSO is an impenetrable wall of sound because there are at least 6 stations, all on that last frequency. Assume I'm operating split with VFO B locked on my transmit frequency. Particularly if I am using automation to send my "TU DX1STA UP" response, I could spend the time that message is being sent, tuning the receiver in my radio to pick a track on the waterfall in a far corner of the pileup. I can now start listening where I might hear something quickly and keep my rate up.

It's as if they randomly spin the dial after every QSO and if you happen to be lucky (and strong) they hear you. Otherwise, you can spend hours of wasted time.  A couple of west African DXpeditions currently operating leap to mind.
