I, for one, would get OUT of the habit of announcing the next days call prior to sending it out at the end of the day.
You might be able to tell the possible span, but a lot of the time, when you get to the end of the day, you might have to change the call - add a costume fitting, adjust someone's call - and then you have to think - wait, who did I tell when - and then have to contact them to tell them, "Hey, check the call - you are now coming in earlier". I have fallen into the trap of actor saying "Oh, you told me 7:00p, so I didn't even check the call".
What I do say is "It looks like your call will be 6:00p, but check the call tonight to confirm."
It just ends all confusion by putting out one call sheet with all the calls, and gives you the freedom to make the best call possible.

And - putting up a sign in sheet too early does lead to the problem of people signing in and leaving . . .
