Well, this takes ham radio and SWL'ing to a new high...or new low,
depending on your point of view.

1) Turn on your rig and computer in the evening.

2) Go to bed.

3) Get up the next morning and see what your ~computer~ heard/worked.

Interesting technology, but why bother? :-(- Hide quoted text -

I'm kind of with you there. There's something that it makes it special
to stay up to strange hours and deal with the ergonomic uniqueness of
interacting with each radio. I own almost 50 shortwave radios, and I
enjoy pulling each of them out and using as many as frequently as I
can. Though, I think I may start trying to decode more digital
signals...

Heck, you already have had enough trouble trying to decode the fact that you don't
have a PhD and that you were actually arrested.

239 countries heard and 224 QSL'd (veried, for those in Glendale) using the
NASWA Country List.

And, as always, don't let your children attend the Sullivan College of
Technology & Design.

They've hired at least one dufus who once claimed to have a PhD and lied about
being arrested, and who knows, there may be more dufi there.
