I like the idea of a binary code.
One could also use normal QRSS, a dot being a 'space' and a dash a 'mark'.
Thus one would have a code book of 127 phrases (or better still 256 for an
8-bit word)
A lot more information could then be passed than for a 'normal' QRSS
contact.. e.g. (Bin) 100 - Wx stormy, 101- windy, 102 - light wind, 103 -
still . . . 104 heavy rain, 105 light rain, 106 drizzle . . .
110 - my age is less than 20, 111: 20-30, 112: 30-40 ...
Nothing's new; Nelson's Royal Navy used to send complex messages using a
handful of flags !

If one has DFCW capability, numbers such as 73 can be
transmitted in binary form. For example, a 7-bit DFCW
"word" has a range 0..127. No other CW character has as
many as 7 elements so there should be no risk of
confusing it with other characters.
-__-__- = 64 + 0 + 0 + 8 + 0 + 0 + 1 = 73
This format will only save time if the number has more than one
digit since all "normal" digits are just 5T long in DFCW mode.
Just a wild idea... :-)

BTW, 0x73 + 0x88 = 0xFB
