For some people!  I have a hearing loss from job related noise, and 
listening to a phone contest drives me nuts.  I especially have problems 
with auroral flutter and accents.  CW I can copy with no problems--stations 
with real heavy accents--I might as well turn stuff off and go watch 
football.  It would be neat to  have software that would decode stuff in 
your own language without accents.  Then fone rates would really go up :-) 
How far out would that be???  73
