[Dxspider-support] Skimmers

[Dirk Koopman G1TLH]

He seems to be happily distributing those skimmer spots to 60+ people 
using (a slightly modified version of) DXSpider. The mod he has made (to 
allow, or cause, the '-#' to be appended to the spotter call) should 
prevent these spots leaking, even if one did connect a vanilla DXSpider 
instance to it.

I'd be curious to see his CPU usage.

I should be able make DXSpider considerably faster (on a linux box, at 
least) if I were pushed. If nothing else, I could probably make it run 
on all the cores simultaneously, if there really was a need.
