Hello Tony and all, The RS ID is also present on PocketDigi by Vojtech (OK1IAK)

Simon Brown mentioned the use of RSID to help with mode recognition. He may add this feature to DM-780 sometime in the future - thank you Simon. The ID is very sensitive and certainly takes the guess work out of trying to decipher which mode is being used. Both Fldigi and Multipsk have RSID. The mode-of-the-day idea will probably not put more modes on the air so we're still open for suggestion. Mode-specific contests might help, but ultimately we need to simply get on the air and call CQ more often. We are fortunate to have so many modes to use and I think we owe it to those who worked hard to bring them to us to use them. While we're on the soapbox... I think most would agree that we need more real conversation and less macro use regardless of which mode is being used. There's nothing wrong with a quick exchange, but a few words thrown in here and there makes the contact more interesting. Tony -K2MO
