Subject: LF: activity
I saw GI8AYZ on QRS testing yesterday with a good strong audible signal,
also OM2TW on QRS audible.
Why QRS with good strong signals perfectly workable on CW.
A lot of LF ops have deserted the band because lack of normal CW, some years
back when the 136 khz band started, there was an abundance of CW and most
managed to make a QSO. QRS is useful when everything else fails, but surely
it is more sensible to try CW for a fast QSO first instead of a method that
takes ages to exchange a signal report. The majority of QRS activity that I
observe is unnecessary because the signals are perfectly audible and
workable on CW, even signals from antennas in small back gardens are
perfectly audible here. Improving the station with more TX output and a more
efficient antenna is a better approach than the LAZY MANS CW (QRS-VY SLOW)
