I challenge anyone in the world to have a receiving station know that the
transmitting station is sending AFSK or FSK and then move the offset in a
packet window, which is what Gil is asking for.

Back to running 80 an hour in the contest....

[Assuming the risk of being flamed...]

Don't expect too much modifications to the packet features... The WL author
told some months ago in the "CQ Contest" reflector that he finds using
packet in contests a kind of shame activity, and that he was quite upset
about the WL users asking him to modify anything in that feature.

Kind of "this is how I think contest must be, so this is all my users will
get". No mather any other serious contest software supports it: don't you
find anything but nice having to erase ALL WARC bands spots??? I got tired
asking for that, just to get replies like:

         -Use DXTelnet.
         -Filter the spots directly in the cluster, so I must set filters
just to use one software, and then revert the situation to any other, or
have to FAKE a different cluster callsign if I have my logging software for
"not-contest" spots.

And so on hi.

73,
