Anyway, I've retreated to 17m CW to escape the SS hordes, and it is wide open to east Asia... APF working great in 4.18 as long as you don't shift above 1.00 kHz (why would you ever want to?) This will get fixed in short order. BTW, if you DO turn shift to 1.00, you don't have to recycle power. Just turn SHIFT back the other way until the clicking stops, then return to your chosen passband shift point...

Yes, 4.18 has some problems that have been identified on this reflector, but for those who are willing to work around those problems, I am certain the firmware folks at Elecraft would like to have feedback of any other problems discovered. Those who wish to "play it safe" should definitely retreat to 4.14 (install all the files), but for those who are a bit more adventuresome, try out the APF and the improved noise gate, etc. as long as you are willing to work around the limitations that have been identified so far. I often use beta releases of software, and I do expect a few glitches when I do - I figure that is my "cost" for trying something new. The good thing about Elecraft is that they do respond to identified problems in a timely manner (unlike some others). Lyle will certainly be busy when he gets finished with his weekend! Let's provide him with information on any other glitches that might show up. 73, Don W3FPR On 11/6/2010 6:58 PM, Guy Olinger K2AV wrote: > Wayne has officially yanked 4.18.
