Can we incorporate an FT8 decoder and a built in spotter in this design?

Yes, I think so. It's part of the larger plan. Will probably need a Pico2 to have sufficient memory though.

Even with Pico2 it might not be doable. Some simplified version with far worse decoding capabilities than WSJTX might be possible, but that's not what FT8 is about, is it? Here is an interesting list of obstacles: https://github.com/portapack-mayhem/mayhem-firmware/issues/2316#issuecomment-2994124052
