I'd love to, Chas - but unfortunately Skimmer needs IQ-format data to do 
its magic, and straight audio won't work.  One experiment I've been trying 
is to run spots from Skimmer through a comparison to the latest master.dta 
file, culling out the clinkers.  Come to think of it, that's what guys like 
K3ZO do in their heads...
