Why have you failed to name the country involved? If the Contest Rules require that every contestant follow the Rules of the country where he/she is operating, it seems to me that the whole country SHOULD be DQed if they violate their own laws.

From my distant vantage point nearly 6,000 miles away, it seems like those in the UK ARE obeying their own rules. Allowing for differences in propagation, their signals are typically well below those of nearby countries, and they rarely require repeats of my exchange, even when they're close to being buried in my noise.
