The purpose of this paper is to describe a system which exhibits better bit error rates for Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) signals than those now used to make the bit decision The system is similar to the popular Integrat6 and Dump device., but it is modified to take advantage of the information contained in the FM "clicks" resulting from the demodulation process to aid in making the proper bit decision. The paper is divided into four parts: First, a brief review of the Integrate and Dump Detector is presented. Then the "click" mechanism is described and such properties of this mechanism as the number of "clicks" in a channel are reviewed. Third, a method of using the information in the "clicks" to one's advantage is discussed. Fourth, and finally, the hardware needed to implement such a system is described in general and certain suggestions are made to improve the over-all decision making capabilities of the system.
