And you could call cq as EIEDI, as it is known in advance that a call
contains a number.

The CQWW exchange is known in advance for many zones, including zone 15.

There was no need to ask for a repeat.  You knew, from the callsign, that
the zone was 15.  Sending a zone as AE is similar to sending a report as ENN
- and no one needs a repeat in those circumstances  :-)
