 No, I think it is not a good idea, at least so far.
 
 RRR, RO,  and 73 are shorthand messages, no real text sent, but a combo 
 of tones, and that has adventages at very low levels compared to real 
 text.
 
 Watch the waterfall when you get called and when you get those shortand 
 messages,

Hi Andy,

Think there is a mixed bag; some of use have used the WSJT modes for 
some time on vhf/uhf for EME and MS;p so we tend to stick to known 
conventions. So far I have seen no reason to deviate from that...

73 es be well,

Bill  N9DSJ

 I see a few are confused about the proper sequence and meaning of 
the
 EME/MS related messages within JT65A of WSJT.  So, am I.
 
 I wonder if us HFer's should try to be more straight forward?  The
 general use is described as..
 
 
 
 When a station copies both calls, he sends calls and report.
 If he gets both calls and a report, he sends his report  Roger.
 If he gets report and Roger, he sends Rogers.
 When both get a pair of Rogers, the QSO is officially complete.
 
 The report mentioned above is traditionally the gridsquare in 
JT65A,
 I find that useful.  So , 
 
 How about these messages
 
 CQ P5DX
 
 K3UK replies with message 1  P5DX K3UK FN02hk
 
 P5DX sees both calls and sends  K3UK P5DX PM27 OOO  QSL
 
 K3UK receives the report and sends  QSL , thanks
 
 PD5DX sends...  RRR 73
 K3UK sends ...  RRR 73
 
 I would keep RO, OOO, RRR in the messages because they also get
 displayed in the waterfall.  I'm not sure how/why yet, but that is 
my
 weekend learning objective.
 
 
 As I read more about the mdoe and the software, K1JT advocates the 
use
 of standard operatings procedurees.  So, maybe changing his 
convention
 is not a good  idea?
