If you do have a waterfall display and you do check it carefully before calling CQ, the only person who knows that is *yourself*. To anyone else who might be listening, you are indistinguishable from

CQ<period> requires *four characters* the same as TEST because of the need to shift to FIGS for the period. If you are going to use "CQ." there is no advantage over TEST - it takes the same 330 ms l
