It's difficult. Assuming the station does stay around for fills, "pre" or
"prec" are about the best you can do. In some cases--when the op at the other
end just doesn't get it--I have resorted to sending "letter?".
I'm curious about why it's "precedence" in the first place? The letters
describe what are fundamentally operating class designations? Is this some
sort of quaint anachronism retained from traffic handling (as "check" for year
first licensed also appears to be?). Precedency is defined as:
"the condition of being considered more important than someone or something
else; priority in importance, order, or rank."

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Precedence?
What it the best way to ask for a repeat of someone's precedence in SS
CW? For me this is the most difficult part of the exchange to get sent
again. Often I get the section is repeated instead and I have to ask
again in a different way or sometimes the whole report is sent again
which at least resolves the issue. In a few cases the calling station
simply disappeared after my query and I had to wipe them from my log.
