FREQSMO(1)

NAME

	freqsmo - Convolve a CW data set with a filter of a
	          requested effective bandwidth

SYNOPSIS

	Usage:  freqsmo -i infile -o outfile 
	                -f filter_width_in_hz [-c] [-r] [-h]

DESCRIPTION


	freqsmo is a stand-alone frequency smoother that can
	process either CW or RDF-CW data files.

OPTIONS

	-i infile          specifies the name of the input file,
	                   a '-' implies the use of stdin
	-o outfile         specifiles the name of the output file
	                   a '-' implies the use of stdout
	-f filter_width    a floating point value for the smooting
	                   filter width in Hertz
	-c                 force the output into old CW format
	-r                 force the output into RDF-CW format (default)
	-h                 help

EXAMPLES


	To smooth an old style file to 20 Hz resolution and output a 
	compatible file:

	   freqsmo -i zel.cw -o zelsmo.cw -f 20 -c

	To do the same using pipes:

	   cat zel.cw | freqsmo -i - -o - -f 20 -c > zelsmo.cw

	To read from an old style CW file and output an RDF file:

	   freqsmo -i zel.cw -o zelsmo.rdf -f 20   

BUGS

	freqsmo niether checks nor adds file suffixes.  Make sure 
	that you get them right.
