A base station identifying itself in CW does not key its carrier. The carrier stays up and the ident is an audio tone keyed inside it, which a detector looking for a keyed carrier sees as a carrier that never stops. On the land-mobile bands that is nearly all the Morse there is, and none of it was being read: an ident of KSQ330 sat in the middle of a 27-second capture on 154.369 MHz, cleanly keyed at 22 WPM, and the capture was filed as voice with no Morse in it at all. Three things were in the way, and each was found by measuring rather than by reading. The whole-recording decode ran only for captures recorded in cw mode. An ident over FM is recorded in nfm, so it was never looked for. It now runs for every capture. The tone was sought in the first four seconds of the audio and nowhere else, so a tone that had not started yet could not be found -- on the capture above it locked onto the harmonic of something else. It is now averaged over the whole clip. And the steady tone either side of the ident was read as a character the window had sliced, which dropped the first and last letter and, through complete_text, the whole callsign: one word with no gap in it to survive the drop. A mark far longer than any dash is not a truncated element, it is the transmission the ident was sent over. Even fixed, the decoder measures its tone and its key-down threshold over the whole of whatever it is handed, so a half-minute recording with five seconds of keying in the middle measures both from the other twenty-five. So the audio is searched a few seconds at a time, plus the whole capture -- that one matters for a beacon keying throughout, where the longest window is the best one and leaving it out lost an ident the decoder had always read. Nothing was loosened. Every window is judged by is_morse exactly as a whole capture is. Across 677 real captures the search claimed Morse in four: KSQ330 and WNRS309, both FCC land-mobile callsigns and neither seen before; a 20 WPM burst on 70 cm reading as E7HNN, plausible and unverified; and noise on 445.5 MHz reading as "T T T E E E E E E E E". That last one is the new rule -- E and T are the one-element characters, so a decode of nothing but those can hardly be wrong, because there is nothing in it to get wrong. With it the count is three.
