Hi Phil and all
The last weekend , I used 2Tone during the whole WPX Contest with N1MM /
MMTTY.
I used it as an Extra RX window. This allowed me to compare the RX of both
softwares.
I found that in many times the decoding of 2 Tone was clearly better.
This helped me a lot to avoid many errors in callsigns and serial numbers
and also to save a time
( not asking for repeat call/report).
Sure, I will use it in the next contests but only as an extra RX window.
Best 73's to all.
