This is the "CW decoding region", which could be bigger or smaller than the
bandwidth being digitized.  But this change is fine.

In SkimSrv.ini There are center frequencies listed for each band and three

The *Rate=* line determines the digitized bandwidth and which of the three
sets of center frequencies and SegmentSel lines will be used.

0=48kHz 1=96kHz 2=192kHz

I got onto this issue because I was seeing a report displayed in N1MM+

It displays the CwSegments settings.

The selection updates the Rate= line to Rate=1.  You can select 192 kHz and
which will set Rate=2 and ensure that the edges of the 160m band are
covered.  There's a JA band above 1900 kHz.
