// Auto-call — the wiring around internal/autocall.

// The DECISION is in that package, alone and tested. This file does the three
// things it cannot do for itself: cut the decode stream into periods, tell it
// what the log still needs from each station, and carry out what it decides.
//
// It lives in the backend rather than in the panel because it keys a
// transmitter: it must behave identically whether the FT decodes tab is open,
// behind another tab, or the window is minimised — and because every rule it
// applies is then a Go test rather than something only the air can check.
