I have seen that copy profile bug too. It took a few minutes to figure out. Flip my profile switch and then it goes into a mobius loop of "Transmit when switching to this profile". Quick way to make new APRS buddies;-)
Also the TX delay value increments down in the GUI when clicking back and forth from profile 1 and 2 in the GUI.
