The "digital" sound is sometimes hard to detect to the untrained ear. It 
seems to show up best during either deep fades when phase distortion 
enhances it or when the signal is very strong. Switching back and forth 
between a normal cw carrier and the Peg, one can detect the difference. 
I'm convinced that most people just write it off to band conditions. 
As for getting on-the-air reports, generally, they are worthless. There's 
only a few operators who will critique a signal and give a critical 
report. 

Considering your QTH Jim, I doubt if anyone would ever notice the fuzzy 
sound much less report it! After all, they want that QSL OM.
