Where did you get the latching relays, and what are their numbers. I have several projects that could use latching relays. Hopefully they are affordable, the ones I have found are very pricey ( > $10) Are they true mechanical latching relays, that will keep the settings with no power?

Hi, Alex.
Thanks for your comments. Since the next generation of SoftRock
currently in development will require the physical swapping of band
modules, having per-band profiles in Rocky would really be a big
help right now. Also, I have shipped out over 160 40.500Mhz crystals
so far to allow 30m operation with the SoftRock V4 and earlier. I'm
pretty sure that there must be more than just Chuck (W5USJ) and
myself who have gone multiband by now. PC interface of the hardware
band switching could naturally follow later (SoftRock V6.0?)
Thanks for all your great work on the software end. Without people
like you, Phil Covington and Bill Tracey this stuff would never be
as popular as it has become.

Hi Bruce,
Great work! It should not be too difficult to add per-band
profiles to
Rocky.
The next logical step is to switch bands electronically from the
PC, e.g.
with this single-chip USB-to-parallel converter:

As I previosuly reported, I have been working on a multiband
SoftRock. I finished it up last night, and I am happy to report
it
works great.

I fail to see why doing the same thing over and over and getting the same results every time is insanity: I've almost proved it isn't; only a few more tests now and I'm sure results will differ this time ...
