[Lowfer] Can WSPR be compared to a QRSS speed

[John Andrews]

L,

I think that DFCW does exactly what you suggest. You get a shorter 
message time, and better certainty about what's real and and what isn't.

Screen shot of one ZL6QH test:

The spacing between the dashes was too close - they just ran together, 
and the frequency shift should have been narrower for best brain 
performance.

Any influence I have over Mother Nature seems to have disappeared this 
winter. Sigh...

Im guessing it may help by shortening tx periods against fades, maybe...
