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.
