That's the point, even QSO goes in 2 min, also next one, still during 3rd 
LID is TXing RRR RRR and he have no idea when he hear RRR that those are 
really not for him ;) Often I see that those who answer without report will 
be quicklier QSOs to handle. When RK1B TX RRR 1st  hear RRR he knows to take 
next and after that even LID can understand that his RRR is received and 
close TX. Also then will not be any question in chat or DXC or SMS is that 
QSO C.... And in worsest situation next day same LID is calling again 
because thing that 1st was NC QSO.

Just interest to hear comments from those who are been in "hot side" of 
pile'up.
