What is the best speed to use when answering a CQ in Morse code?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: B. The fastest speed at which you are comfortable copying, but no faster than the CQ
Answer a CQ at a speed you can comfortably copy, but no faster than the calling station. Sending faster than they did may mean they cannot copy you.
Tip: Never answer faster than the CQ.
