For contests like RDX and WPX where the exchange is a serial #, do you:
. Go as fast as always. (34-36wpm) , risking your qso partner busting
the #,but keeping rate high.
. Go a bit slower (30-32wpm), hoping the QRS improves the copy &
reduces busted exchanges.
. Send everything just as fast as normal (whatever that speed is), but
use brackets <<>> (a la N1MM) to slow down JUST the serial #
. Slow down only for obviously slow callers
. Something else?
Inquiring minds.
I don't want to skew the results, so I won't say (yet) what I do. (and who
knows if what I do is even 'right')
