You can't always assume calls though. Now that AA5VU is showing up
in RTTY contests, you cannot assume it's AA5AU responding to your CQ.
Again, dual receive using 2 decoders on a single signal increases the odds
of you getting it right the first time. Details at
http://www.rttycontesting.com/dualrx0.html
or printable version http://rttycontesting.com/writelog/dualrx/page00.htm.
This is also a great way to compare decoders. It has proven to me that the
PK232 is better than the KAM and the DXP-38 is better than the PK232 and
MMTTY beats them all!!! But the DXP-38 is the closest thing to MMTTY.
That is why I use a DXP-38 in the 2nd Rttyrite window. It copies stuff MMTTY
doesn't at times. It's invaluable to have two decoders. It saves time by
cutting
down repeats and in the end allows more QSO's in the log.
