Thanks, Danny!

This is an amazingly cool feature. I was just a bit bemused because even
though I've spent a lot of time on FT8, and was familiar with the contest
and expedition modes, I somehow managed to not  bump into it before,
probably, because I finally got a better antenna up for 160. I really love
the 7300, and it's always fun to encounter something new. "QSY? Why sure!
Thanks for asking." and there it goes. :-)
