Last Two International (LTI) is a non profit organization designed to promote laziness and poor operating practices throughout amateur radio. It is believed the idea began with DX nets from which it has exploded in popularity across the amateur community. We meet on all bands, in the SSB portion, wherever DX can be found.
Below is some of the feedback we have received at Last Two International. Thanks for keeping our membership strong! Great turnout for the VP8THU and VP8GEO operation! Also nice to see our brothers, the DX police make a strong appearance!
The LTI 2002 Convention for Ducie Island was a great success! Thanks to all the LTI members who came on frequency for the meeting. We haven't decided where the 2003 Convention will be held. We'll keep you posted. In the meantime, keep meeting on the P5 and YA frequencies at every opportunity. Remember, if it weren't for your last two...you'd just be another CB operator! 73's, Mike ZooLoo.
UPDATE: LTI 2003 Convention will be held for 4W, Timor Island!
I suggest a LTI QRP award. This can be earned by tacking on "/QRP" to the end of the LT call to try to get a sympathy contact from the DX.
Sincerely,
Charlie Alpha

Charlie:
Sympathy for /QRP? Does this work? I always thought my squeaky voice responding to "I heard a YL in there. The YL only QRZ?" was the best way to bust a pileup!

Another one to add to the list:
If the DX doesn't answer your call, then keep calling. He'll work you instead of a stronger station, eventually, and you can even earn the Pissed-off All States award in one evening!
Zulu Zulu!
Zed Zed:
A call so nice, you say it twice? I hope the DX is well versed in "Last Two" methodology. If not you could get "Zulu?" "Zulu Zulu Zulu?" because
I know you always call with, "Zulu Zulu Zulu Zulu Zulu Zulu!!
"Thanks for displaying your LTI membership proudly. See you in the 4W pileup!

Immediately after working a DX station you must get on EVERY CLUSTER and ask
for the qsl info. You may not look it up in any bulletin or any online manager listing. Then you must ask who the manager is continuously on the DX's transmitting freq. till all cops start screaming in unison.
