How about if you receive callsign and frequency information that is outside of your receiver passband (2.4 KHz or 2.7 KHz), then it is assistance? In other words, if you can hear it and your "decoder

No skimmer network can duplicate the skimmer spots I receive from my own copy of Skimmer running on the S&P radio. That is totally contained in my station and not the product of any other operator.

Here's a suggestion. If you consider CW to be just another data mode, then it's perfectly logical to use code readers, or Skimmer, or any future technology to decode it. After all, that's what you wo

I am 100% with Randy here. Skimmer is very similar to packet (and even more efficient as I read and hear) in what is offers and the same statistical methods can be used to detect skimmer use as packe

Joe, I don't think anyone is trying to marginalize skimmer technology, nor do I think that the "assisted" category is to be considered inferior to "unassisted". There are elite in both categories. I

I agree with Ed, keep on developing the technology. He also has a good point on the "robo wars", which won't be too far down the pike. There is another possible benefit that I haven't seen discussed

The significant advantage of Skimmer - particularly in a DX contest, will be to narrow the significant multiplier advantage of those in favored locations. It will allow the "disadvantaged" stations

  Again, you are thinking about the spot trail from a centralized skimmer collector, not a local skimmer. What my skimmer gets in MS and what ARRL gets in CT will be significantly different. There is

Hey Tor, All excellent points, indeed. None changes my mind that Skimmer should be assisted, however. I see no reason why calling Skimmer 'assistance' in any way negates the advantages you so correct
