I don't know why it should come across that way. I'm only concerned that
users sometimes seem to attach more magic to these modes than there is.
Foreknowledge of what is being sent enables _identification_ with fair
certainty, but all I'm saying is, it's not the same thing as _decoding_
real-world information whose contents you don't already know. I wish there
were more emphasis on that aspect of digital communication among
experimenters.
I sure hope NASA's signal processing techniques aren't just telling them
things they expect to hear. :)
