For those who have their testing scattered between FTDNA and YSEQ (or elsewhere.) ?ydna-warehouse.org now has Match panels active on the reports page. ?It's a good time to log in and make sure you have your YSEQ kit linked. ?There is a walk-through for that as well on YouTube. ?
SNP Matching works by finding your position in the tree and listing anyone else you share a common ancestor with in about 20 generations. ?Since this is an authenticated page, you can also peak behind the veil to see which lab and kit the match is associated with. ?Now you know who your tree mates are.
The STR reports are the simplest thing possible at the moment. ?As long as there are at least 37 markers tested and you don't mismatch by more than 10% of the values, the matches are show here. ?No SNP or NGS testing is needed for this match list. ?It will be refined in the future when STR values are added in with the tree.
The next item on my development is the internal Message system, so that you could contact anyone that shows up here but isn't in the FTDNA database.
Let me know if there are questions or suggestions for improvement.
Thanks,
James Kane
