I don't know how good these ideas are, but there are three things I do
to combat what you're talking about:
1. I never begin the exchange until I see my call print correctly. I
will accept my call with wrong shift characters (2U58 in place of W7TI),
but if I don't see that, I just keep sending my call until he gets it.
2. I have a buffer, Shift-F5, which says CALL CALL AGN PSE.
3. And another buffer, Shift-F3 which says MY CALL IS W7TI W7TI W7TI
BK.
Not a complete answer I'm sure, but I'm open to further suggestions.
