That what I say John. You cant follow my recommendation, because you dont
use a waterfall. I havent used straight rtty in so long, and never really
used it on the ham bands so dont know how you would do that. Unless there
is a way you can easily put on a spot note, saying it IS a rig readout, and
I dont know how accurate that would be for those of us with computers. We
would just live with it - as we are already doing. Its better for notify us
that P5 is up, even though we might have to search for it. HI.
