Skimming spots with flex

Hi,

I'm wondering before I deep dive in to this if someone could tell me how many bands you might be able to skim at once with a 6400 or 6600?  I'm assuming 2 and 4 respectively?  I have a 6400 that sits idle 99.9% of the time and figure it might as well be doing something for me or the community.  It's just a hot spare in case my 6600 dies or in case I want to run a contest M/S which is very unlikely.

Thanks,

K0KB

    You can skim on as many bands as you can put slices up. In order to start, check out Slice-Master and CW Skimmer. Install both, and you can populate your bandmap immediately.

    Advanced (optional) use cases:
    Install RBN aggregator to send your spots to the world. 
    Install WintelnetX and combine external feed with your own.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
