Wholeheartedly agree! It saves a lot of time and multiple exchanges
if on your first contact you state your N number, position, altitude
and request. Granted it does take a little planning and forethought
which is beyond many people.

One thing a LOT of pilots don't do right. When you call fligh****ch,
you should give your position on your initial callup. This is because
although it's all the same frequency, there are different transmitters.
If you don't give your position, he has to reply on ALL the
transmitters he has becuase he doesn't know WHERE YOU ARE!

I hear this mistake time and time again.
