QSO policies

QSO POLICY
Anyone are very welcome to answer my CQ calls, but IF you are a contest-station DON’T CALL ME.
I don’t participate in contests.
IF I’m calling CQ DX or CQ <country / continent> I expect that you respect this and do not call me unless you meet these specified conditions.
Otherwise I don’t care if you are a beginner or an old timer, QRP or QRO, a DX or non-DX and wherever in the World you live.
“599 73 TU” is not a QSO, but just a ping, the only exceptions is DXpeditions and SES.
A real QSO are exchange of at least a honest report, name and QTH.
A radio is a line of communication, so why start another and new communication line to get these informations when we can do it on the radio?
