What Dave said. Pick out a station and call them, and you'll do much, much
better than the other method.

Chris,
The best thing to do is listen, listen and listen. If you hear a particular
station making contacts go ahead and give him/her a call. By doing that they
know you are actually hearing because you have picked out a particular call
to try. The incessant call dropping during a pass is typically an indicator
that the person isn't hearing the bird and just dropping his call in hopes
someone will bite.
