Hello Walter...
Thank you for the development of your RTTY Skimmer software!
I suggest you give consideration to another format that is used very
often during RTTY contesting. That would be these forms:
"WPX K0RC CQ "
"CQWW K0RC CQ "
"BARTG K0RC CQ "
"JARTS K0RC CQ "
"SARTG K0RC CQ "
"NAQP K0RC CQ "
"TARA K0RC CQ "
Or maybe a simple "K0RC CQ" detected twice within 15 seconds would be
enough to capture ANY contest CQ solicitation.
I think I understand why there is "QRZ K0RC " and not "CQ K0RC " as a
capture string. The "CQ CALLSIGN" would likely capture a station calling
me in the 7 examples above. In that case HIS/HER callsign would be
posted as a spot instead of mine, the CQing station actual.

Hello,
yes and no......
after your CQ a " " (space) is required, then the call will be detected for
sure.
If not or no "CQ ","QRZ ", "TEST " is at the end:
RCKskimmer has an option for special keywords what must be set by hand of
the skimmer OP. I case of the WPX RTTY the best keyword would be WPX .
Additional the skimmer OP must enable this functionality. Then your call "
WPX WK6I WK6I " will be detected.

Interesting. So I guess I'll never get skimmer spotted if I use the
common
practice:
WPX WK6I WK6I CQ
You will be spotted. Here is the complete story.
RCKskimmer is looking for keywords in the receiving text. These are
CQ,
QRZ, TEST, DE. After these keywords and after the own call a " "
(space) must follow, this is a must.
Examples:
"CQ DL4RCK DL4RCK"
"CQ DE DL4RCK DL4RCK QRZ"
"QRZ DL4RCK"
"CQ TEST DL4RCK DL4RCK CQ"
"XYZ TU DL4RCK CQ"
"XYZ DE DL4RCK " (DE-Detection)
......
Note the " " (Space) at the end of each line.
CQ, QRZ or TEST at the end of the line are only detected, if the
option "Contest Style Detection" is enabled at the local RCKskimmer.
If the call is allready in the Master.cal file, it is detected after
the first receiving. If it is not in the file the call must be
received correct two times in a row, after this it is permanent added
to the RCKmaster.cal file at the local RCKskimmer.
