[ct-user] FW: Does CT support M2 in WPX?

[Ken Wolff]

You can use two radios per computer with CT988 as it is with no trouble, if
you don't mind keeping track of the band changes yourself. I hope to have
that incorporated before the SSB WPX, but no guarantee.

Phil,

I second the motion for support of M2 in the upcoming WPX. I am also
wondering if it would be possible to have one of the two stations set up
with two radios and an Array Solutions SO2R master. This would allow for
the operator at this position, with smart band change management, to
maximize 6 point QSO's when the going gets slow on the low bands. Would
it be possible to incorporate this without introducing a serial number
generation nightmare from the station with 2 radios?

Too much to ask with too little time left?

Ken??
