Yes, with WispDDE, Orbitron sends the data to WispDDE and it controls 
the radio. I don't think the 706 is full duplex but it should track 
nicely anyway.  WispDDE also allows transparent  tuning, i.e. If I hear 
someone in the passband  up from my initial position I can tune the 910 
and  WispDDE will maintain  the doppler shift by computing the delta 
between what Orbitron is telling it and what freq it gets back from the 
radio. All very cool. SatPC32 will do that too.

cheers
