I am using a Flex 6700 & can easily monitor on its panadapter from 50.000 to 50.300' more or less, depending on how I have my filters & bandwidth set.  If there is ANY 6 meter signal, any mode, strong or weak, I will definitely see such on my screen and generally quickly click my way right to that freq to see whom I'm copying.

I see lots of WSJT signals around 50.265, but no other digital signals copied yet.
