One more question that I am almost afraid to ask, for risk of generating more 
approbation from those who can't bear to see any criticism of their new toy, 
but in view of the reported statement from Mr Ros that "the FCC will have to 
pay me to see my source code" will the source code for this mode ever be made 
available under the GPL like other modes before it, in order that it may be 
incorporated into programs like DM780 and HRD?

If not, then most of this is a waste of time because modes that are only 
supported by a single program on a single platform inevitably die once the 
novelty wears off. People want editable macros, logging, CAT control of their 
transceivers and the ability to switch modes with a click of the mouse. I know 
the "armchair programmers" have already requested some of these things of Mr 
Ros. Dream on.
