Today, skimmers report once every 10 minutes while a station is detected
running.
I wonder, if that logic were tweaked to adjust that window to report "every 10
minutes or after another station has been spotted on that same frequency,
whichever comes first", could the CT1BOH skimbusted/skimverify logic be tweaked
somehow to warn about possible S&P callers.
Similarly...does there need to be an adjustment in the skimbusted logic to
allow consideration of garble tables for RTTY spots?
Finally, elsewhere in this thread, I believe I remember seeing that another
node operator was getting feeds from both the RBN and from DL4RCK's system. I
have been doing that on my node, but I am discontinuing the DL4RCK feed after
my CQWW RTTY experience. On AR v6, duplicate spots from the different networks
are being parsed as non-dupes, which impacts the CT1BOH logic.
I can see someone arguing that skimmers can decode RTTY better than CW and
therefore should get the "verify" tag sooner, but I chalked up the spotted S&P
calls and the busted calls in part to the failure to dedupe spots.

This much I'm pretty sure of - neither CW nor RTTY Skimmer does any
post-processing. Once the callsign and whether the station is CQing has been
determined in a given decoder stream, that information is immediately passed to
the Telnet server. Ever since the first days of CW Skimmer I have wished for a
function that would, in effect, "notice"
that a station that was spotted as CQing was, in fact, S&P. The obvious way to
do this would be to "take note" that a station just posted as CQing turned up
within some time interval on a different frequency, therefore indicating that
he wasn't CQing at all, or at least no longer on the same frequency. Logging
software could then go back and delete the original spot from the Bandmap or
other listing of eligible stations waiting to be called.
