Either way would have been fine.

Releasing SSB firmware for 80m only, no CESS, limited menu, no support for CW or digital modes,

no calibration step would have shut down the "This EER SSB Stuff Can't Possibly Work" posts.

And many here would have been happy to try out an early version of 80m SSB.

Pushing through and releasing it in more or less final form may be for the best, assuming Hans recovers.

It's mostly bug reports being reported, often stuff Hans wasn't aware of, not reports of needed additional functionality.

It would have taken months for Hans to find those bugs, releasing piecemeal would likely have a larger total bug count,

more documentation to write, more discussion in the forum.. All at once makes best use of his time.

I'm just happy it's out, and that it mostly works.

Yes, I believe you are 100% correct. Much of it could indeed have been released piecemeal as releases in their own right.?

If you had then I think there would have been a massive amount of demands for the additional features to be added NOW!? There would have been massive criticism.? The "are we there yet" posts would have? been replaced by "I want it NOW!" posts.? This would have been far more stressful and harmful to the QMX Labs reputation.
