I do the same dynamic messaging from home in CA where my QSO rate and count
is less than most everyone else. I think it is universal to vary
communication based on the current situation.

I don't' have to send repeats too much and in that case, I find 3x on the
resend of the exchange to work good for me. But I don't have any hard
data - it just seems like I moved to 3x from 2x a while back because I had
to repeat the 2x a couple of times too many. For ed, who generally has a
6-digit exchange from running 100K Q's each contest, keeping the repeat
count low avoids a 60-second long transmission cycle (ha ha).
I wonder what Don AA5AU has for repeat count? He's generally running LP and
does not have Ed's favored QTH so his experience may be closer to what the
average guy would encounter.
