There's only ever one delivery fee for one book purchase, no matter how many times the reader downloads it via Whispernet. And the fee is charged whether or not the book is ever downloaded via Whispernet.

Delivery fees only apply to books where the "royalty" rate is 70%, and vary according to the size of the book, as determined by Amazon.

See https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/help/topic/G200634500 for full details.

A 2MB book sold for $3.00 in USA at 70% royalty rate would earn the publisher ($3.00 - $0.30)*0.7 = $1.89
