    In a short answer,  no..   But there are several features of the M models that are not in SmartSDR,  programed function keys for one.   But if you have the M model,  you can always access the radio with SmartSDR and still be able to operate the radio standalone without any external computer or IOS device..   

    Hope this helps,

    The only reason I have SmartSDR is so that I can use the Flex Control and a mouse with my 6400M.

    ...and you should be backing up your profiles with it if you are using profiles.

    Since the M model radios are basically running a Windows OS, and the M model radios have a USB port, it would be nice for non SmartSDR users to be able to plug in a USB mouse to the M radio and operate the M model radio screen functions from that mouse. This seams like a very simple OS modification requirement to the OS.

    I DO NOT have any profiles as I darn near ruined my amp because the profile did not drop the pwr from 100W down to 45W, The end of profiles for me.
