Advocation: ssbx(ssb cross mode) for sota activation

If you’re using ssb and willing to receive cw as well, would you please put an “x” behind ssb in your sota alert?

As a full time qrp operator, I found 2-3W ssb is not strong enough to penetrate atmosphere most of time, but CW has a better chance. Cross mode may not be a good idea for ragchewing, but perfect for a short, relaxing sota qso.

There’s a comment field right there for you to indicate that you’re OK with cross mode

Hello, Wei.
I really enjoy cross mode QSOs, and I’m tickled whenever one happens.
Regardless of mode, I look forward to hearing your call.

These are quite common on 2m activity nights here. I have many 2m QSOs in my activator logs in which I have TX’d CW but RX’d SSB.
