FOCers sign their QSOs with "161" (73+88).

It's been suggested in the past that SOCers sign theirs
with "159" (72+87).  When I entered the open FOC Bill Windle QSO Party a 
month or so ago as W1SOC, I did reply to an occasional
"161" with "159".  In each case, they got it and responded
with a "hi, hi".
