[CQ-Contest] E2E is real

Well, I for one have always enjoyed the "novelty" of certain exotic calls.
To read, as part of this thread, that use of EE5E was discontinued because the RBN software was having fits with the call is disappointing.
I'd hate to hear about E2E or similiar calls going the same way, especially for the same reasons.
There's something very wrong with the process, if we are adjusting our operating techniques & procedures to accomodate the automation. Either we have to accept that the automation is not perfect... or those working on the automation have to keep improving it (and I know that they are). 
As Barry W2UP just said... that seems like a case of the tail wagging the dog.
73, ron w3wn

E2E is no problem at all as two dashes are strongly against string of dots

14 callsigns from master.dta not including recent ES5HS!



Skimmer uses spectral analysis and strong signals have a lot of artifacts,
even cliks! So E insertion error is frequent.



HF QSB can be up to 120 dB/sec causing omission errors. Skimmer is very
good on both using Bayesian statistics.



Just be bit humble on our OF typos so frequent on DX Clusters before VE3NEA
CW Skimmer.
