Hi Ria,


>From the CQ WW rules regarding Assistance:


2. QSO finding assistance: The use of any technology or other source that 
provides call sign or multiplier identification of a signal to the operator. 
This includes, but is not limited to, use of a CW decoder, DX cluster, DX 
spotting web sites (e.g., DX Summit), local or remote call sign and frequency 
decoding technology (e.g., CW Skimmer or Reverse Beacon Network), or operating 
arrangements involving other individuals.

I think contests that ban CW decoding only do so for multi channel decoders
like CW skimmer and not someone using a code reader.
