    Ha!!! So many digital modes I can't remember them all. Three November Sweepstakes section wins. 425 grids on 6m, 101 on 2m, including via EME. 287 DXCCs, WAS 160-6. Weeks (maybe months) of continuous uptime. Love the ability to watch multiple bands. CW Skimmer with I/Q is amazing. FDX makes satellites easy. Smartlink remote operation allowed more than one ATNO from my desk at work. Fewer boxes on the desk adds years to my marriage, and probably my life. 

    Still having more fun in ham radio than ever!

    I can connect my Maestro to my 6700 so far. If I ever get port forwarding working I will be able to play ham radio at Starbucks. You’re an inspiration! Do you have YouTubes of how you set up those different modes? 73

    Their are some fantastic posts up here, man you guys are serious!!!

    I wanted to see how this would work, so I used slice master for some of this and just copied the rest  simultaneously.
    FT 8 80 meters
    FT 8 160 meters
    FT 8 40 Meters
    PSK 31 20 meters
    Packet on 30 meters
    CW on 20
    and finally SSB on 20
    Was nasty but oh so cool.....more than anyone could possibly digest!!!
