Hello Pete,
Two questions.
Does Farnsworth spacing's have any effect? I like to run my letter
speed at 25 to 30 wpm, but the say "Word" speed at 20 to 25 wpm.
and
Varying spacing's, Like our club call W9ET if i run it "as is" I get a
LOT more repeats.
But in like N1MM+ if I use W9~e~T insert the half spacings, I almost
never ever get any repeat requests.
One More I havent tried it yet, but to emphasize the "T" in the call,
say I'm running at 25 wpm, but just for the "T" I drop to 20 or even 15
to emphasize that it is a dash. and make it really obvious the
difference between the "E & "T"

When trying to decode callsigns for the RBN, the CW Skimmer Server
software developed by VE3NEA relies on proper CW spacing to determine
what is part of a callsign and what isn't. This can result in
problems in contests where abbreviations of the contest name are
commonly part of the CQ and sent just before the callsign. For
example, "CWT" is often run together with the sender's callsign,
resulting in spots of K4 stations with prefixes like "TK4". "WW",
"MM", and other contest abbreviations, when run together with the
sender's callsign, can have a similar effect. The resulting spurious
spots can replace what should be good spots - for example in the
Available and Bandmap windows in N1MM+ - so it would be very much in
senders' interest to correct their spacing if they see this happening.
