CWSkimmer is a multi-channel CW decoder and analyzer for Windows 98/ME/2000/XP that can use direct I/Q data streams from PowerSDR for wide band decoding. CWSkimmer can be downloaded from the Afreet Software, Inc. web site

Some of CWSkimmer's features are:

A very sensitive CW decoding algorithm based on the methods of Bayesian statistics
Simultaneous decoding of ALL cw signals in the receiver passband - up to 700 signals can be decoded in parallel on a 3-GHz P4 if a wideband receiver is used
A fast waterfall display, with a resolution sufficient for reading Morse Code dots and dashes visually
The callsigns are extracted from the decoded messages, and the traces on the waterfall are labeled with stations' callsigns
The extracted callsigns are exported as DX cluster spots via the built-in Telnet cluster server
A DSP processor with a noise blanker, AGC, and a sharp, variable-bandwidth CW filter
An I/Q Recorder and player.
