How about 2 PSK tones at 22.75 baud spaced 50 Hz apart that sends 101010100101010111110000 ?

-Dave,
How about something as distinctive as RTTY's RYRYRYRYRYRYRY? We all
recognize RYs without decoding it with a terminal. Your tone idea
is good, anything that is easy to recognize with the ear would be
good. I wonder how QRLQRLQRLQRLQRLQRLQRLQRLQRL sounds in RTTY?
