[Lowfer] WSPR/JT9-2 Shootout

[Eric Tichansky]

So far WSJT-X (JT9-2) consistently reporting 1-2 dB lower SNR than 
WSPR.  I am noticing that JT9 is decoding *much* faster than WSPR, by 
several seconds.  That is beneficial when using JT9 for QSOs.

WSPR:

2204 -18 -0.5   0.137451  0 WD2XES FN42 37
2208 -14 -0.4   0.137451  0 WD2XES FN42 37
2212 -13 -0.3   0.137451  0 WD2XES FN42 37
2216 -17 -0.4   0.137451  0 WD2XES FN42 37

JT9-2:

2204 10 -20 0.1 1400.8 0 WD2XES FN42

2208 10 -15 0.1 1400.7 0 WD2XES FN42

2212 10 -14 0.1 1400.8 0 WD2XES FN42

2216 10 -19 0.2 1400.8 0 WD2XES FN42

73 - Eric NO3M, WG2XJM
