I see far too many decoders, indicating that there are multiple carriers, perhaps from unshielded Ethernet cables or nearby power supplies or computers or Routers or perhaps front end overload. The problem is not the CPU, it is the local digital noise or intermod.
Please press the Band Scope button in RTTYSkimmer and cycle through the bands using the button in the upper left corner of the band scope display. Every yellow dot is a decoder on a carrier, probably far more than you should have, especially on 40 and 20m. Maybe they are all on the FT8 signals, so these frequencies should be excluded by editing RTTYSkimServ.ini.
You may also use HDSDR to see all the steady carriers which will create a decoder in both CW Skimmer Server and RTTY Skimmer Server.
Yes you can have 8 bands of CW and 3 or 4 bands of RTTY by eliminating RTTYSegments (but not center frequencies) on some bands, but that is not the problem here.
I did some test this afternoon with my
Core i7 -4790 CPU @ 3.60 GHz with 8GB of RAM
CW and RTTY on 160,
80, 40, 20, 17, 15, 12 and 10
CW and RTTY on 160, 80, 20, 17, 15, 12 and 10
CW and RTTY on 6 bandas: 160, 20, 17, 15, 12 y 10
Is there a way to have 8 bands on CW and 3 or 4 bands on RTTY?
thanks!
I have found that limiting the RTTY skimming bandwidth on 40 meters can make a big difference in CPU utilization
