Geoff --
I was not trying to justify our code that posts only the first decode of
duplicates in the same Rx sequence, just to tell you what the code does.
I'm sure you can find many places where we have done something simple
and straightforward, "just to get it going," even when something
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.

Yes, for WSPR/FST4W signal reports are essential.
For FT8 etc. it probably doesn't matter much, but that was not the topic.

Actually the strongest is not indicative at all of current conditions. You can
have momentary band conditions either way.
What matters is what signal you heard them at. e.g. "I initially received you
at XXdB". If a user wants to see band conditions for their callsign they can
use
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
Geoff!
Do You mean that somebody is really looking FT8 or FT4 reports???
If You can see the call sign on Your screen, it is possible to have a QSO. You
just have to find clear transmitting frequency.
I have worked many DX QSOs and after the QSO have noticed that I was using only
5 W:

I would also prefer if the strongest signal would be uploaded.

Hi Joe,
Puzzled by your response. I agree with not uploading dupes, but I can't
fathom why you wouldn't compare dupes and pick the strongest one. In a
situation like this, clearly the strongest signal is representative of
the real conditions. I can't think of a use for uploading any other
