where to be more efficient , not all can join in .
Yes, but what would you guess is the mode where most LF OPs can join
in? CW or QRSS/DFCW/HELL, i.e. a scrolling spectrogram running in ARGO,
SpecLab, Spectran... or WSPR? I would guess it's the spectrogram! :-)
From a communicating efficiency
point of view, MFSK will offer a higher efficiency compared
to single tone, but , as can be observed , LF operations tend to
take place in extended time scale so gain from time
integration has tended to be the path taken ..
Yes, that's it.
A simple eample: If WSPR "is 2 dB better than" QRSS-3 there would have
been NOTHING AT ALL visible of my beacon signal during the last night
on the grabbers of RN3AUS and 4X1RF and YO/4X1RF. But in QRSS-60 there
was a clear trace, detectable without any doubts. That's the simple
reason why this path has been taken.
