Dear Dave Please let me know in which way do the PROPNET, ALE, HF packet BBSes, HF APRS DIGIS, W1AW Broadcasts and the rest of the unattended systems operating on the HF bands understand that there is a voice, cw, digital QSO taking place on the frequency and if they stop their transmission? As far as I know they all understand ONLY if there is another station operating in the mode they USE and NO OTHER MODE. So what you are talking about PACTOR 3 being the only offender is FAR AWAY FROM THE TRUTH OM. There is no system today that has such a DETECTOR you are dreaming about. Finally if you are so adament about such a detector why don't you write one that works (you already own an SCS MODEM) and give it for free to the Radio Amateur community? I know why. If you did that you would not have anything to whine about!!! 73 de Demetre SV1UY
