Standard MSK144 message frames are 72 ms long, compared to 117 ms for
JTMSK. The MSK144 waveform allows coherent demodulation, allowing up
to 3 dB better sensitivity. After QSO partners have exchanged
callsigns, MSK144 user can use even shorter messages, only 20 ms long.
As in all the fast modes in WSJT-X, the 20 ms or 72 ms messages are
callsigns, MSK144 can use even shorter messages, only 20 ms long. As
in all the fast modes in WSJT-X, the 20 ms or 72 ms messages are
repeated without gaps for the duration of a transmission cycle. For
most purposes we recommend a T/R cycle duration of 15 s, but 5 s and
10 s sequences are also supported.
MSK144 short ("Sh") messages are intended primarily for 144 MHz, where
most pings are short. These messages do not contain full callsigns;
instead, they contain a hash of the entire transmitted message along
with a report. They are not encrypted -- the report is sent in the
clear along with the hash. Short messages are fully decodable only by
the station to whom they are addressed, as part of an ongoing QSO,
because only then will the received hash match that calculated using
the known strings for "My Call" and "DX Call" and the received report,
RRR, or 73. If you are monitoring someone else's QSO, you will not be
able to decode its Sh messages.

An MSK144 signal occupies the full bandwidth of a typical SSB
transmitter, so transmissions are always centered at an offset of
1500Hz. For best results, selectable/adjustable Rx and Tx filters
should be set to provide the flattest possible response over at least
300 - 2700 Hz. The maximum permissible frequency offset between you
and your QSO partner is ± 200 Hz, and less is better.
