HiWin4K3Suite can also qsy cwskimmer on VFOB allowing split operation which is great for pileup. Cwskimmer alone does not have this functionality. 73 Tom va2fsq.com

I use Win4K3 with CW Simmer. I can see what the band looks like in the spectrum display in Win4K3 and refine my selection and decode call signs for 1/2 the sampling rate of my sound card in CW Skimmer. Together they are a powerful combination. Both control the frequency tuning of your radio. 73, Barry K3NDM ------ Original Message ------ From: "Bill W4ZV" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: 7/28/2016 12:12:59 PM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] comparing P3, LP-Pan, SDRPlay, others? >Elecraft mailing list wrote >> Re: If you want to point and click to EXACT frequencies, I recommend >>CW >> Skimmer >> >> Both CA Skimmer and Rocky have this feature.
