I can see how it would have ruined VHF DXing.  It might provide signal
detection
in weaker conditions, but it doesn't provide the chance that you might
actually talk
to the operator at the other end.

These digital processing methods are better suited to a "weak signal
detection" contest,
held at a different time.
