SD>Hello Daryl.

Hi, Sean...

SD>You can do all you need from the front panel of a 718.  It has computer cont
SD>though if you want to do digital modes AFSK (which I still do with the
SD>SignaLink you gifted me).

  The technology has gotten so complicated and daunting.

SD>It's a difficult thing to do.  I squeaked by passing my Extra test.  If they
SD>told me I'd failed, I'd been disappointed but not surprised.

  I missed 13 on my Extra Exam...it was good enough for a pass, though.

SD> DS>   And, you can pull them out of the weeds better on digital.

SD>Usually, yes.  I really love Feld Hell since you have to use what's between
SD>your ears to decode and not the computer.

  There is a city I think in Michigan or Wisconsin, called Hell...and in
the winter, they say "Hell Froze Over". <G>

Daryl
