‰  NOW 20 WPM  ‰
BECAUSE WHEN THE OTHER STATIONS HEARS/SEES THE SERIES OF ROGERS, THAT
CONFIRMS THAT YOU HAVE BOTH HIS CALL AND THE REPORT.  YET BY CONVENTION
MANY DIGITAL AND SOME SSB/ CW CONTACTS ON BOTH EME AND MS ADD THIS EXTRA
STEP SO THAT THE OTHER STATION WILL KNOW THE CONTACT IS COMPLETE.  DIGITAL
TRANSMISSIONS OFTEN INCLUDE GRID SQUARES.  FINALLY QUASI REAL TIME
COMMUNICATION HAS BECOME ACCEPTED.  HIGH SPEED METEOR SCATTER TECHNIQUES
REQUIRE TAPE RECORDING OF HIGH SPEED CW AND PLAYBACK DURING THE NEXT
TRANSMISSION, BUT THE NEXT STEP IN THE CONTACT SEQUENCE CANNOT BE INITIATED
UNTIL THE LAST STEP IS CONFIRMED, EG, YOU MUST CONFIRM BOTH CALLS BEFORE
YOU CAN SEND A REPORT.  LIKEWISE DECODING WHAT IS RECEIVED FROM THE JT44
