??? Listening

I must be the only one who has a problem with "Callsign listening" as the protocol for announcing oneself on a repeater -- I usually miss the first part (during the "huh, someone's on the repeater" moment). I guess when you already know everyone by sound and call sign, it works great, but for newbie me, I spend time wondering "who was that?"

And if I have my radio scanning around a few repeaters, I'm guaranteed to only hear the last few letters of their call...
