Russ,
"FSK keying" today is built into the rigs most use, so the old diode shift 
method is still the best for your VFO.  Also keying it off your "floating 
loop" in the ST6 is about as good as it gets, in my opinion.  Irv did it 
right!!  I look forward to seeing you on 20m!!  Let me know when you are 
ready to transmit, and I'll sked with you and see if we can shake the dust 
off the gear, hi.
73,
Don, WB5HAK
