I'm using LOGic 8 which interfaces with the N4PY program using the "Pegasus mode". It works well although the learning curve for LOGic 8 is enormous and compared to other programs such as HRD it's ra

If the DX stations used CW Skimmer in a non-contest, split pile-up, all you would need to do is find a clear spot and your callsign would show up on the DX station's band map, even if you were 50 dB
