I'm a bit!! confused on this one... Do I assume that the remote station 
initiates the qso?  We then try and send an ack back and the remote station 
does not receive it, therefore the remote station sends the message again. If 
we receive it before the 30 seconds is up we resend the ack based on our path 
setting and not the reverse path.

So it looks like we try and use the reverse path 3 times before using our 
path.  7,14,28 secs

Do I have it close?

If this is true, it is kinda hard to test.  Have to contemplate over that....
