[WT-support] Auto spot when S&P

That sounds like a great idea, but I have not yet found an RTTY skimmer that works as well as CW Skimmer when connected to an SDR.  There is no reason I can think of that would prevent such a program from being written for RTTY.  Maybe someday we can convince Alex VE3NEA to modify CW Skimmer for RTTY!

Ron,

you are talking of a private network you want to establish. Why don´t you just set up a CW & RTTY skimmer which will spot all activity in your area and can be accessed by all of the members easily. No need for searching and no need for spotting every single station automatically into the public skimmer/cluster network. You will miss a lot of activity anyway when S&P-ing the bands.
