LF/MF
I think most have now lost track of who is actually available to work or listen at any one time on LF or MF with such a variety of modes talked about and in use.
A new comer has no chance, would not know where to start or what to listen for or what frequency.
In the days of CW or QRSS DXing,   the procedure seemed orderly then the scene became fragmented with the different DATA modes being introduced and just as easly ended.
For simplicity and efficiency sake I would suggest sticking to CW, QRSS and OPERA using class D or E type amplifiers at 90% efficiency.
and avoid modes that might appear efficient but are not when you consider they need Linear amps that are only 40% efficient.
Slow slow modes are not the best when hit by QRN or QSB that removes large chunks of the data stream.
in fact Short Burst transmissions would probably had an advantage, anyone thought of that approach ie several repeative short bursts of information sent periodically, of course more bandwidth is required.
