[CQ-Contest] NAQP CW + Skimmer

[ww3s at zoominternet.net]

 I interpet it to mean if I have a second receiver or SDR at my QTH
(not connected to any other similar device at another location), and
that my own SDR or second receiver is generating "spots" via skimmer,
or whatever other similar software names there are, it's perfectally
acceptable me to use those "spots" as they are totally generated with
my equipment at my QTH......

 I am still confused.
 K1TTT keeps saying that the NAQP only allows the use of narrow band
code readers.
 The aobve post from the NCJ seems to say you are allowing
 multi-channel band decoders (such as the CW Skimmer) that decodes
all
 the CW signals it hears all the time.
 Please explain.
