About 8 hours into CQWW CW, one of my P3's bandscope function stopped
working. I checked the cables. I powered the unit off. When it came on, it
worked for a few seconds. The outboard monitor worked for a few seconds.
Then it stopped working. I did this a few times with the exact same

P3 stopped working. When turned on, the entire screen flashes from red to

through those screens again, etc. I have done a reinitialization by holding

When I turn off the P3 and then turn it back on again I lose all my settings.

We were demonstrating the P3 at the Kennehoochee Hamfest and discovered glitch
which can be repeated using the following steps:
Install all firmware
Reset
FixTrack Fix-Tune Mode
Band Change display freeze
Turn off
Turn on Fatal Error (In: ddc_set_coef(); Span=0)
Any suggestions?
Thanks Dave, I've been able to duplicate the bug. (It's really helpful

and hope to have a fix shortly.
