As a reader I like that there is depth to topics if one wants to dig deeper.
Especially like the updating scheme. I didn't spot whether the "version leader" will become the Maestro or the 6000, rather than the PC's SmartSDR GUI as at the moment?
At some point perhaps FRS might tell a bit of the whole development process from brainstorming to product?
I am also impressed how much of the information Tim W4TME was able to pass on in just a ten minute demonstration at Hamcation. My wife was impressed enough to become interested the Maestro. I mention this as while of course Tim is an expert communicator with a double serving of patience, but that the "get you up and go" part of the Maestro was both intuitive and easy to catch on from being shown just once.
Greatest fear here is if I don't make myself ready the full manual before arrival I'll never take advantages of features from being too busy operating via Maestro.
Coordinating a Maestro/PC team would seem to be my first "if I could please have" wish, having a desire to park the radio server, amp, and all the gear out of sight and operate from a PC and Maestro elsewhere at each QTH. Hopefully down the road.
Again appreciate the effort by the FRS team to put an advance copy out for all of us to study.

On page 123 of the manual, titled SLICE RECEIVER BANDWIDTH KNOBS, what is the increment of the width, center freq, high, and low movements?

Thanks Steve, I appreciate the chance to RTFM before my Maestro arrives :-)
I notice that screen shots on pages 80 and 87 'appear' to be SSDR and not Maestro; is that intentional or should I have gone to Specsavers (UK joke...)?

In the mean time, I think we can say that the SmartSDR images are helpful, if not quite right.

A button says disconnect. That way if the PC client (or Maestro) is left running, the other client can boot it without physically going to the basement/mountaintop/undisclosed bunker where the abandoned client is located?
