Hi Tom. I am no help on the '706. Some radios use lower sideband for CW
mode, hence the problem. I do know that the FT857/897 series uses USB
which makes CW <-> SSB cross mode contacts much easier. There is also a
software selection to enable CW capability while in USB mode so that I can
simply squeeze the keyer & send CW while in USB mode. As you point out,
being able to work cross mode is a real advantage for a rover and I am
always thankful for the fix stations that are good with CW. Sorry that I
can not help you out with the '706 tho.
73, Jon
