First newbie question, I have Skimmer Server running on 6 bands under
W0LFA-# since yesterday afternoon.

40m
30m
20m
17m
15m
10m

Skimmers Online just shows 3 bands for W0LFA. Is this because MUF hasn't
popped above 20m here in DM59pa yet this morning thus no recent higher band
decodes?

Second newbie question. I have pretty good separation between my Pixel Loop
(connected to QS1R) and my TX antennas so I don't bother muting QS1R during
TX periods. The CLP light on my QS1R is not lighting so I think I'm OK
there. Likewise, I don't seem to have blown up the Pixel preamp.

However, I see phantom decodes of my own callsign on, for example, on 17m
and 10m when I am txing on 20m. I have "AA7XT" in the Bad Calls file in
Aggregator 4.1 yet I still see my call show up on Aggregator Spot Display
on the correct and phantom frequencies. How do I get Skimmer Server and/or
Aggregator to ignore "AA7XT"?

What analysis tools are available to review the spots one's own Skimmer
Server detects? Would like to organize and analyze this from time to time.
