[600MRG] In Summary - WSPR "flavors"

[John Andrews]

Brian,

My sense from Joe Taylor's email was that they were thinking bigger than 
a slowed-down version of WSPR. It would be an MSK mode based on MSK144, 
but slower, and with better error correction. He felt that they could 
beat the SNR performance of WSPR-15 at LF/MF, and in shorter time 
periods. Guess we'll find out eventually. We've long needed something in 
a text-based mode that could approach the performance of WOLF, without 
the fussiness and need for linear PA's.
