Chris,

Ok about KN.
But in QRSS or DFCW mode you don't have to waste time and wait for a QSO to 
end before calling one of the stations. Just move up or down a few Hz (or 
even less, depending on dotlength) from the QSO partner and give a call 
while the previous QSO is still going on.
On of the nice things about QRSS is that you can monitor more that one 
signal at the same time.
