I find it slightly better to ask "PRE?" than "PREC?", as the "EC" part  seems 
to get translated into "SEC".
 
But after a few tries, it is usually better to just ask "AGN?"" and get  
everything.

The SS  exchange emulates the message format but there is no intent that this
be a  training exercise to handle message traffic.
Although I am an old traffic  handler myself, I suspect there are some out 
there who have never handled  any NTS traffic.  There were a number of times 
when 
I needed a repeat  on the precedence and so I sent "Prec?".  A few came back 
with a  "?"  until I said "Pwr?".  I wonder what the best way to ask for a  
repeat 
of the precedence  is?
