Customizable Display

I just finished reading the QST review of the 6000 series - most interesting.
I noticed in one of the photos of the 6700 that the LED display was ARRL-6700.  Is this possible?
It would be really cool to have it read K3GC - 6700, etc.

    You can customize the front panel on the 6500 and 6700 in the Radio Setup pane.

    Gene,

    Elmer sent a nice picture, but the key is to type your call in the "Nickname" box.

    Thanks, but color me ****.  I set mysetup pane exactly like yours (except for the call :)) and it had no effect whatever on the front panel of the radio - it still reads FLEX-6700.  I rebooted radio and PC.  Am I missing something obvious?

    Did you click the "Nickname" button next to what you typed?

    Ahhhh, a simple click - on such trivial things the world revolves :).
    Thanks, I think I will buy a new video card now.

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.
