I wish I could choose any mix of ant/rx from the front panel. >Is an external antenna selector the only option for such a flexibility so >far? Or I just miss something? Lyle already addressing this. >2) When in the contest I change bands by entering frequency into logger's >call window. Now I have some local noise on 160m and therefore have to use >NB there. For some reasons NB ON setting is not memorized. That means every >time I come back to 160m from any other band I have to switch NB ON again. >Is that a bug or is that done on purpose? Set CONFIG NB SAVE to Yes. >3) Having read all the previous messages on the subject I still do not have >clear picture of how to make SUB RX drive both earphones without resorting >to use of command tester. Is that the work in progress? The DSP is done. Waiting to be implemented in the firmware MCU file. Its on Wayne's list but not sure when it will be done. He's working on some higher priority items right now. >4) AF knob has recently fallen apart. I have discussed that with several >other users here in Russia and found that it is pretty common case. It would >be good to have substitute knobs made of some better plastic or aluminum. >Is there a source somewhere in the US? Google concentric knobs??? I had one break as well about a year and a half ago due to slightly over-tightening it. No problems since. > >Still I like this radio so much that I have recently ordered another one.
