spectrogram for viewing frequency-shift keyed (FSK) signals in real time

What is QRSS?

QRSS is a type of continuous wave (CW) radio signal which uses frequency-shift keying (FSK). QRSS is ultra-narrowband (5Hz bandwidth) and ultra slow speed (about 3 letters per minute). The abbreviation QRSS is Morse code slang for "transmit a lot slower".

# What is QRSS?

QRSS is a type of continuous wave (CW) radio signal which uses frequency-shift keying (FSK). QRSS is ultra-narrowband (5Hz bandwidth) and ultra slow speed (about 3 letters per minute). The abbreviation QRSS is [Morse code slang](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_code) for "transmit a lot slower".
