True enough - although in the example above, the medium of choice for
QSP was email. The laws of propagation obviously do not favour one
mode over another - contrary to the belief of a few....

Quoted by whom?

No mode "always gets through". But Morse/CW often gets through when
none of the other available modes can.

IIRC, 7037 was the QRG of choice last time, and it worked well. We
only need a few Hz anyway...
