Stu,
There was a brief discussion of the benefits of receiving multiple bands
on the ALE list a year or so ago. As you say, ALE (and also Winlink)
connections might be made more quickly if receivers listened on all
calling channels simultaneously.
But a Flex 6700 is really overkill for this because ALE pilot stations
and Winlink RMS stations are usually unattended, so there's no need for
wide slices and no operator to look at the panadapters. The "slices"
would only need to be 3kHz wide, so a far simpler radio would be sufficient.

I suppose the 8 slices would make ALE more efficient, wouldn't it? The
TX could run through a cycle of different bands and the RX would
always be listening. No need to have the RX scan. If you had 8 TX
slices, capable of transmitting at once, then the best 'channel' could
be found with a quick, three-way handshake.
