Hi, This is an observation, not necessary a bug report, and as Bill pointed out in one of the groups.io threads : The root problem is that USB devices are "hot-pluggable" and adding or removing a device, while the system is running, will cause all other devices to be re-enumerated, this can chang

Hi Dave, A very good observation. If possible, I would default to the rig selection from the Settings Window -> Radio Tab -> Rig and then allow for an override. The reason is that there are a lot of rig emulations around : SDRConsole emulates a TS-2000, uBitx emulates a Yaesu FT-817, and so on
