Very nice, Eric! I missed that while being evac'd for the fires. Just
moved back in after 8 weeks. Would the results be comparable on 160M?

The new FST4 mode has almost completely superseded JT9 on 630 and 2200m,
the only remaining JT9 signals being from those that missed the
announcement / release or are waiting on a general availability
release. The advantages over JT9 are numerous, including use of 'a
priori' (as used with FT8, etc.), and a user adjustable noise blanker
that many have found indispensable on LF/MF. While part of the beta
test group, we did a fair amount of testing on 160m as well.
Joe posted this graph comparing JT9 vs. FST4 performance:

I'd love to see Topbanders using JT9, which provides another 4 dB of
noise rejection. JT9 dominates on 630M for that reason.
