I've (mostly) solved that problem by replying  with cl? and not sending 
my exchange until he responds with his call.  That usually works, but 
sometimes the  non-IDer sends TU or ditdit anyway, as in reality, there 
is no exchange to copy in this contest.  If so, he winds up with a ding 
for N-I-L.
