Scott,
The Jupiter mode was added much more recently than the Pegasus mode (which
was in there from the beginning). The main use of the Jupiter mode is so
that you can use the front panel to control the radio and have a logging or
contest program get information from the radio. Many of these programs don't
'control' the Jupiter, they just get the freqency and mode.
Are you interested in being able to have it so you can control the Jupiter
from either the computer or the front panel at the same time?
Mark
