The "HOBBLE SKIRT: was a fashion fad around the 912 Era, which lasted some years despite the inconvenience for affecting the wall adversly of a nice young lady. Only tiny steps could be managed---and why that was supposed to be attractive---escapes me.
So, the woman has fallen on her bazattkis, and uttered a cry for help starting with this alert C.Q,D.
Now the meaning of this is totally unfamilr to me. If you know anything about it---please inform me, so I can yell it t9o if I" faw down-go boom"! Thank you.

Thus, "CQD" is understood by wireless operators to mean, "All stations: distress." Contrary to popular belief, CQD does not stand for "Come Quick, Danger", "Come Quickly: Distress", "Come Quick—Drowning!", or "C Q Danger" (Seek You, Danger); these are backronyms.
