Agreed, but I don't think becoming a calling station is what that means. Sometimes it's good to call down and throw away money short term to let people know that you are capable of making that play, but becoming a calling station is not what you want to do.

I think the answer is basically practice. At least where I've been playing, low limits online (5/10c), mixing up my play virtually doesn't matter. No one actually observes that kind of thing. I do mix it up once in a while, but not to confuse other people, you can't confuse people who aren't observant enough to notice. Maybe it's hurting me for when I get my BR big enough to move up, but for now simply playing the same style is making me a good amount of money, and the live games I play usually weekly help me a bit on mixing it up and working on my image. The only way to get good at anything is to practice. Books and places like this forum can help speed up the process, but there's no substitute for experience. Just try to keep focused on whether you are beat or not, and don't make a call just because you MIGHT be ahead. That's my advice for being able to prevent being a calling station.
