Seriously, I wonder why we need to consider the effort of decoding and 
deciphering speech over the air, when the solution is really so much easier:

Just make self-spotting legal. Or even mandatory.

Self-spotting already exists on CW. Call CW twice and you get spotted by 
RBN Skimmers. No way to avoid it.

The net effect would be the same if we just made it legal. I'm sure the 
N1MM folks could code it up on a weekend - ever time you QSY and call 
CQ, send a self-spot automatically. Regardless of mode.

The horse is already out of the barn. Might as well let the cat and the 
cows out too.

Spend the effort of decoding speech on something else more worthy that 
has no easy solution.
