Onee of my favorite CW calls to send is/was the San Francisco radio club's
w6pw 
Remember a field day with them back probably in the mid 80s from McLaren
park on a hill in south S.F. using a heath HW101 into a 450 foot long wire.
On 15M CW we never had to call a station twice.

Had this call since 1959 and can't imagine changing it.
