I think the answer is a good panadaptor. Look into using the 
softrock40 and PowerSDR combo - excellent panadaptor. This will let 
you actually see the individual sigs and see what type they are (rtty 
or CW, e.g.). When my K3 gets here I will be working on this first. 
Search on powersdr test drive to see the panadaptor in action. Also 
search on softrock and k3 panadaptor.
