    Yes but we Flexers cannot be QRV on the 8m band. My 6400M will not transmit there. I have to use another brand of transceiver 😒

    There are several countries where operation on 8m band is permitted. . A TURF file crated by Flex would make possible transmitting on that band. We had a similar situation with 60m band.

    There is more to operating on 8M than just allowing the radio to go into TX, you also need to make sure that the transmitted signal meets the required Spectral suppression.
