Walter, we all owe you a debt of gratitude for showing us the way with
RTTY and PSK spots on the RBN. I do not know if it makes a difference
to your decision, but RTTY SkimServ does not decode or spot PSK
transmissions.
73, Pete N4ZR

For spots, please go to your favorite
ARC V6 or VE7CC DX cluster node.

Hello Mark,
really nice news, indeed.
If so, my DCS-system (dl4rck.ham-radio-op.net:8000
<http://dl4rck.ham-radio-op.net:8000>) is no longer necessary with the
RTTY/BPSK skimmers, because of the very much better performance of a
full SDR supported system.
My system will going offline end of the year. Hope RTTYSkimServer will
work this time.
Many thanks to all RCKskimmer user for the great support and
distributing many digital spots over the last two years.
Please prepare your systems with the new RTTYSkimServer and support
the RBN as well as you did it for the Digital Cluster System DCS.

From the emails on this reflector and in the 3830 comments, it's
clear that CQWW RTTY
participants noticed the increase of rttyskimmer spots! As part of
the team that has
been taking this software through alpha testing I've been asked to
give you an update.
The software, RTTY SkimServer by Alex, VE3NEA, entered alpha
testing right before
the SCC RTTY Contest, and that contest was used to help wring out
stability and other
issues. Right before CQWW, the decision was made to start sending
spots out over the
RBN ( http://www.reversebeacon.net/ ). This was to allow
additional stress testing and
analysis of spotting performance. This resulted in just under
half a million spots due
to the efforts of:
Mark N2QT Pete N4ZR Petr OL5Q
Wes WZ7I Rick ZL2HAM Alex VE3NEA
Dick W3OA Vasily K3IT
These spots and their accompanying data are now being reviewed to
improve the accuracy
of spots, especially for the correct identification of CQing
stations. Currently the software
is stable, but lacks documentation. The plan is to continue
improving the performance
and completing the documentation before it becomes publicly
available. Spotting via the
RBN will continue as these refinements are tested and reviewed.
RTTYSkimServer is, unsurprisingly, very similar to CW SkimServer,
also developed by
VE3NEA ( http://dxatlas.com/SkimServer/ ). It has a minimal user
interface and requires
editing an ini file for configuration It is designed to produce
high quality spots over a
telnet link. It will operate with any of the wide band SDRs that
currently operate with
CW SkimServer i.e. QS1R, Hermes or USRP, and provides multiband
operation. The
software will be available as shareware.
Hope the spots added to your enjoyment of the contest!

Mark N2QT
(and sorry, no more alpha testers needed)
