Hal,

I finally had a chance to test the bandmap on 12, 10 and 6 again as you and
Jim, AD1C requested.  It works fine on all bands with my K3.  It will move
the red arrow up and down as I tune the rx.  It will jump to any spot
(callsign) on the band whenever I double click on that spot -- either from
the DX Spots window or the bandmap window.  I have been active on 6M this
summer, and I frequently use the bandmap to jump from one spot to the next
on that band.  It essentially tracks the Radio Frequency control window that
I always have open when using DX4WIN.  When the frequency is read from the
K3 and updated in the Radio Frequency control window, it updates the
frequency by moving the red arrow on the bandmap simultaneously.  But I just
closed that window and the bandmap still works fine on its own.  It also
tracks any frequency changes that I make using any of the memories from the
K3.  I just noticed that when the K3 is in split mode, the bandmap tracks
the VFO B frequency.  When I turn split off, it immediately goes back to
tracking VFO A.  All of this testing was done on 10M.  But it works fine on
all bands.

Hi Dave,

Jim, AD1C asks if you could try all bands once again.  At Jim's place the
bandmap will not autotrack on 12M and up per his recollection, and he
thought that was the way it was designed...

TNX!
