Hi Tony,

I had the function in mind, then cajoled Lyle into doing the hard part -- the demodulator. Somehow he figured it out in just a few days. 

The key idea that led to the PSK31 and RTTY decoders was this: that a ham receiver should be able to demodulate all commonly heard signals and display them on the front panel, without resorting to a computer. That was around 2005, though. Since that time many new data modes have been added that made this less practical, but RTTY and PSK31 are still in widespread use (you can hear them every day) and operating in these modes using the radio itself is still compelling for many of us.

73,
