 This is a *huge* burr under my saddle!  It totally messes with my mind
when someone sends the PREC and then the CK without a callsign in between.
I almost always have to ask for a fill in those cases.  I had two or three
this year that did that out of about 700 or so contacts...and all of those
were from people who should have known better.  And one was a guy who was
sending about 40wpm, trying, no doubt, to be "efficient".
