I'm getting the same result as Bob. No matter how I set the threshold, 2,3,
Automatic, etc, I cannot get it to perform as well as the old 1.78 version
which was just amazing.

Well, I have, and found that the lower the threshold, the less stable.
Using the beta version, with THR = 2 excursions of 20 Hz between
auto-spot invocations are not uncommon - yet on the same signal (S5 or
so) the 1.78 version performs very well. The side by side comparison
with two rigs using the same signal is telling. I'll play with it a
bit more this evening.
