I read with interest how other hams use the SDR1000 for contesting. I find the SDR1000 very difficult to use in contests or DXing as it lacks an efficient memory system. To store a frequency into memory one has to go to pull down menu memory, slide the mouse to save and click, click again on the OK button. (3 mouse clicks and 3 mouse movements) To recall a frequency one has to go to pulldown menu memory, slide the mouse to recall, highlight the specific memorized frequency and click recall. Oh do not forget to undo the X on "Close on Recall" otherwise you will have to open the memory menu again. (4 mouse clicks and 4 mouse movements) This is very inefficient. Most highend transceivers have 5-10 quick memory channels that can be stored and recalled with a single button. How do you flexers run contests with the SDR1000? Am I missing some basic SDR1000 operating skills?
