Absolutely, but this isn’t “The strongest signal over the last n decode periods”, its “The strongest signal _this_ decode period”, which might help reduce the reporting of spurs. And yeah, it’s a rathole. 73, Willie N1JBJ > On Dec 1, 2023, at 7:33 AM, Black Michael via wsjt-devel > wrote: >

Well, OK, Joe wrote the program, so he really is the ultimate authority. But the “decoded a spur and used that number for the SNR” seems to be the real issue here. In an ideal world, signals for a particular call should be sorted _after_ all the decodes are done, and the strongest (very probabl
