OK Spider - except this "fly" is not going to play that game. We were discussing SO2R - not Skimmers. Skimmer locates, decodes, and identifies callsigns. The operator does nothing in that process (as

Jim, While the "assistance" you refer to is real and conceivably results in the unassisted operator getting more callers, it is indirect to the unassisted operator as opposed to his receiving direct

Hans' colorful writing below describes the decoder situation very well. While some like EI5DI oppose any amount of CW decoding, the reality is that anyone using a single channel decoder is not doing
