I think you're jumping too quickly to that conclusion, Ken. Yes, it makes
too many mistakes, right now. I've been testing a simple solution, though
- running each Skimmer spot through a quick comparison with the master.dta
file, and only posting the ones that match on the bandmap. You'll lose a
few genuine uniques that way, but it also cleans up almost all the junk. I
have no doubt that Alex will develop other techniques for improving the
output in the coming months.
As I reported a month or so ago, I ran CW Skimmer against a KC pileup
contest recording, and even without the master.dta comparison it would have
finished 4th or 5th.
