Al, We'd be happy to support Phil's board in SmartSDR. To do so requires a little bit of code to send out the signals (this is the easy part). The harder part is making sure that it works for more than just one person -- that the solution suits a broad audience. It would be great if someone in the community that understood the needs would coordinate this part: getting consensus on what we need to send out and if there is any kind of setup required that would vary based on differing implementations. Phil has ordered a 6700 so I suspect he would be interested in participating in the discussion.
