## Purpose
66
The point of this tool is to make analysing the WSJT-X 'all.txt' files easier, avoiding having to open them with text editors, and providing various plots and statistical summaries. The 'all.txt' file produced by WSJT-X contains a wealth of information about your station's receive performance that is mostly untapped.

8-
From V1.4 it is possible to analyse a single 'all.txt' file to produce a timeline plot of decode rate and SNR reports, as well as analyse a *pair* of all.txt files to compare performance achieved with two different and *simultaneous* station configurations.
8+
The software works with pairs of all.txt files (to compare overlapping sessions) as well as individual ones.
9+
10+
**Example use cases** include:
11+
- Benchmarking your receive capability against a Web SDR
12+
- Doing local A/B testing with two configurations, using a Web SDR as a stable reference (compare A vs Web SDR with B vs Web SDR at two different times, when you can't do A and B simultaneously)
13+
- Look for patterns in decode rate over time
14+
- Check if patterns apply to all decodes or just groups
15+
- Make a change where you have to leave your screen, come back and see what happened to the decode rate (good for QRM hunting / elimination!)
16+
- Just get a quick visual look at what's in your all.txt file!

The second plot compares the SNR reports, <u>only for callsigns with decodes in both all files</u>. Again, points lying on the dashed diagonal line
