The Missing Q signals
Some Q signals have never made it to the ARRL's official list. Here are
some that may agree would be useful in appropriate situations. As with
regular Q signals, each can be a statement or a question, depending on
whether a question mark follows it.
Obviously, many of these are for eyeball QSO's, and not for use on
the air (hi hi).
