Many times I will match the sending stations speed, if he cqs at 45.. I answer
at 45...
and if the rx signal is strong, he might get a second chance at hearing my
response...
if not.. he might not get any further tries, unless... unless he slows plenty,
and then is polite.
To repeatedly ask for fills at 45.. then finally get the qsl.. again at 45...
only when the response was sent 4 - 5 times... ever slower... only to finally
get it at 18.. indicates a problem somewhere... where would you look to
correct it?
Maybe not respond to that station next contest... ? He can always make up
one more Q somewhere else... and I don't have to have him right?--... ...--Dale
