[Lowfer] What a difference the wx has made

Just throw in a CW ID along with your QRSS so the locals have something to
listen for besides a seemingly endless carrier. I send quite a few "WE" ID's
in CW along with the "WEOH" in QRSS-30.

Yes, but quite a few lack the interest or the equipment for reception of
QRSS or other low data rate signals. They may not have a computer near the
receiver location, or may not have a receiver stable enough to avoid
seasickness when looking at Argo screens. There are certainly plenty of
Lowfers who are downright against the slow speed stuff.
