Quite a few "seasoned hams" still use older forms of software that do
not support RSID. Why they chose not to upgrade is beyond me but they
have their reasons. I suppose that if all you ever do is RTTY and
PSK31, what would be the point in transmitting an RSID? Or upgrading
your software?

That's true Rick...
I just don't understand why so many call CQ with the more 'exotic' modes
without some form of mode ID. Did you ever go through all the modes /
sub modes to try and figure out which one was being sent - only to have
the other party go QRT after you find it : )

All,
I was just wondering if there's any confusion or misunderstanding among
the group about RS-ID? We all know that it's not always easy to identify
a mode by sight and sound yet I still see many calling CQ without any
mode identification. The end result, no contacts. I'm sure most of the
seasoned digital ops know what RS ID is and what it does, so what's the
reasoning behind not using it?
