"Who knew there were so many Q-codes :)"

My favorite from my time as a teenager in the cadet force signals wing was QUQ. 
 I had remembered it as "Shall I point my searchlight at a cloud, occulting if 
necessary, in order to pinpoint my position".

Either my memory is playing tricks on me or the meaning changed a bit over the 
years.  The definition I found now is "Shall I train my searchlight nearly 
vertical on a cloud, occulting if possible and, if your aircraft is seen, 
deflect the beam up wind and on the water (or land) to facilitate your landing?"

Either way, not a code that comes up in most QSO.
