does the panadapter show the output from an Amplifier on TX or just the 6600 TX signal?

    You would need a sampling device after the amp and sw in the radio to process the sample.

    Bill, I mean the spectrum displayed while TXing by the panadapter. 
    Is this what you are referring to?

    Yes, that is what I mean William, the display is only interested in showing what the radio is doing, showing a transmit signal. It does not show anything from an amp.

    Pat already answered your question, above. Unless you have a way to sample the output of the amp and provide it as input to SSDR, it has no way to display that information.

    Fellows I already have $5000 specan on the desk with all the sampling and processing I need.  All that is required is an attenuated signal from the actual tx'ed signal sent to the RX side ( which I thin but cannot find any documentation to confirm it is how the TX signal from the 6600 is seen).   I used to do this with an RFSpace SDR and my FT5000, seems a much better SDR should do it also.
