How fast do you set your computer to send during the contest? >>

Hi Tim,

I usually set my computer program at 28/20 WPM.  I run at 28, but quickly 
toggle to 20 (or even less) for slower replies.  If I generate a big pile up 
(rare with 100 watts and wires) I increase to about 34 or 36 WPM.  I sometimes 
call CQ at the slower (20 WPM) speed, too.  Invariably, I get answered by one of 
the "contest superstars" when I do that :-)
