How about QRSS on three closely spaced frequencies at once, perhaps?

Dear Gary, LF Group,

Quoting from the Propagation chapter of the Admiralty Handbook of Wireless
Telegraphy 1938 edition:

"It is usually observed that the different frequency components of a
modulated wave fade in a manner which is independent of each other. This has
been termed "selective fading"...
...The use of ICW ["interrupted continuous wave" i.e. modulated CW as with
the NDBs] at H/F is therefore a means of combating fading in telegraphic
work."

So  the idea of increasing the signal bandwidth to combat selective fading
is not entirely new... MCW beacons anyone?

Cheers, Jim Moritz
