OK, the TU message is nice and polite, but there might be another aspect of that. For whatever reason in the recent CQ WW I think I have noticed that the TU combo breaks through the screen garbage better than anything else. If there is a final message from a weak station, his call or my call can be completely unreadable in the garbage, let alone other messages like CQ, but the TU is clearly visible in most of cases. I can only speculate that it might be caused by structure of the 2 characters thus decoded easier than others, but I am not an expert in ASCII codes and cannot prove it at all. Can anybody confirm this observation? Or was it just a considence in my case?

Anyway, I'll change my QSL message content from QSL (initially I tought, it is larger and therefore more explicit than TU) to TU.

73,
