[Skimmertalk] placing calls on skimmer display from external source?

[Steve London]

Another possibility for VE3NEA to consider is reporting blind spots to the 
Skimmer telnet interface...something like:

DX de SKIMMER: 14020.1 BLIND

Combine that with a yet-to-be developed N1MM feature that would only write the 
BLIND spot to the N1MM bandmap if there wasn't already a valid callsign on the 
bandmap on the Skimmer-reported frequency.
