[Skimmertalk] Logbook for skimmer

[Joe Hetrick]

Trevor,
   You don't specify "logging" but it wouldn't be very difficult to 
stuff this data into a second Logbook (I'm thinking specifically one 
defined in HRD) as SWL via ODBC driver; is this the sort of 
functionality you're takling about; eg talk to an existing logbook, or, 
something to create an entirely new logbook?  I could invest some cycles 
in this if folks would find it useful.  I've only recently come to HRD, 
so, I have some fire to play with it a bit :)

  On the side: I haven't heard complaints, but, my 160M skimmer still 
spots pretty heavily on the image frequency.  I've got pretty good data 
populated in the I/Q Balance,  don't know why it isn't less "dirty".

At times I think it'd be neat if aggregator had a way to suppress spots 
that *could* be on or near the image.  Typically I'll spot twice and one 
is many db down on the other, so, suppress the lower signal.  Though, 
watching it, it's not always that easy to find.  Ideas anyone?

73,
