[ICOM] Virtual Icom Radio

[AD5VJ Bob]

 One thing I just discovered is that they have put a
function in it that as a spot comes in you can tell it to
automatically QSY your transceiver to the spot.

Means that as I go about my work day (I work at home and
listen to the radio in the background) that the radio will
go to the spot as it comes in, then if it is 6 meters or
whatever I hear it through the speaker, if I don't have
propagation of course I hear nothing.

Sort of an automatic spot scanner.

Pretty cool.

Now for dxing I like DXLAB it has everything the DXer
would ever need.

But for monitoring of spots this one is nice.

Code may be taking a back seat for now,
but the pioneering spirit that put the code
there in the first place is out front of it all.
