I see no reason why you couldn't connect your rcvr to one end and ARGO to
the other to create a really remote rcv site. Would allow true real time viewing from Alaska to GB as example >>

There is at least one reason: lossy data compression. Although the audio quality sounds good to the ear, it is not linear PCM data. There is spectral manipulation, time domain manipulation, and not nearly enough bit resolution to give ARGO or other FFT programs enough clean data to work on.
