While I'm not running the same hardware, and running win 10, I've had the same two things happen to me several times. In addition I've had Halt Tx not halt.

Hi.

I just joined this list.  I'm enjoying using FT8 on HF bands.  Many thanks to 
Joe Taylor and Steve Franke.  I'd like to report what I think is buggy behavior 
in the FT8 auto-sequencing state machine.  In future I hope to contribute to 
development of this very cool software.

Environment

My radio is a Flex 6300.  My computer is a MacBook Pro running macOS 10.12.6.  I'm using 
VMware Fusion Pro 8.5.10 to run a Windows 8.1 VM, which is up-to-date with 
"important" patches.  I'm using SmartSDR 1.11.12 and WSJT-X 1.9.0-rc3.

Example 1

In the following QSO, I responded to his CQ but didn't hear back right away and 
disabled transmission.  A minute later I received a -19 signal report from him 
(A) and double-clicked on it.  The software sent a -20 signal report to him 
(B).  I think it should have sent R-20, with an R.  (Nonetheless, the QSO 
proceeded to a successful conclusion.)

015730 -20 -0.2 1378 ~  CQ N0GOS DN70
015747  Tx      2258 ~  N0GOS W6SDD DN70
015815  Tx      2258 ~  N0GOS W6SDD DN70
...
015930 -20 -0.2 1377 ~  W6SDD N0GOS -19  <<-- (A)
015946  Tx      2258 ~  N0GOS W6SDD -20  <<-- (B)
020015  Tx      2258 ~  N0GOS W6SDD -20
020030 -22 -0.3 1377 ~  W6SDD N0GOS R-22
020046  Tx      2258 ~  N0GOS W6SDD RRR
020100 -20 -0.3 1377 ~  W6SDD N0GOS 73
020115  Tx      2258 ~  N0GOS W6SDD 73

Example 2

This next QSO proceeded normally up to the point where he sent RRR and I sent 
73.  I have the software configured to disable transmission once I have sent 
73.  A minute later he sent RRR again (C).  I double-clicked on it.  The 
software sent him an R-18 signal report (D).  I think it should have sent 73.  
I selected 73 from the list of messages and the software sent 73 on my next 
turn.

041145 -17  0.4 1433 ~  CQ KK4EUN EM60
041201  Tx      2228 ~  KK4EUN W6SDD DN70
041215 -15  0.4 1433 ~  W6SDD KK4EUN -23
041230  Tx      2228 ~  KK4EUN W6SDD R-15
041245 -20  0.4 1433 ~  W6SDD KK4EUN RRR
041300  Tx      2228 ~  KK4EUN W6SDD 73
041315 -10  0.4 1423 ~  F8NHF KE8EF R-04
041415  -7  0.4 1423 ~  F8NHF KE8EF 73
041415 -18  0.3 1433 ~  W6SDD KK4EUN RRR   <<-- (C)
041432  Tx      2228 ~  KK4EUN W6SDD R-18  <<-- (D)
041500  Tx      2228 ~  KK4EUN W6SDD 73

I hope this is helpful.

Best regards,
