I don't quite agree that you should always demand for you call repetition.
For example:
TEST ES5TV
N1IK
IK 5NN A5
N1IK 5NN 5
TU
In that case I clearly say that I have got your call and I am sure abt it.
Why would you question me? It is exactly the same way I trust you when you
answer my CQ and do not say my call, I trust you have got it correct. I do
not demand you to repeat my call, do I?
Actually I find it more beneficial in SSB not repeating the full calls all
the time when I am 100% sure, especially with 6 digit EU calls and they very
rarely ask for confirmation.
