I'm going from memory dating back many years, but I think RTTY stations normally ID in cw by sending cw with the "key down" on the space frequency, and key up on mark. Sticking with that convention might make it a little easier to copy for them due to familiarity of the tones. I'm not sure too may ops would recognize what you're doing, but it would be fun to find out.

Hi all,

Suppose you were an RTTY station (FSK, narrow shift, in the HF bands), and you were called by a CW station. Assuming that this didn't annoy you too much, would you rather the CW station be on your mark or space frequency?

I've made one cross-mode QSO this way, so far, and I want to increase my chances. Just for fun, of course....
