I saw a mention of this on the announcement thread but figured I'd start a
new one: Using FT4, after a few CQs the rig will change to another FT-4
frequency. Sometimes it's after a single CQ,  sometimes 2 or 3, but I can't
figure out any specific  pattern. It just jumped from 80 to 15 (2 CQs) to 20
(1 CQ) to 30 (1 CQ) to 80 (1 CQ) and for whatever reason it's now staying on
80. (Well, it was, it went to 17 after about 15 CQs). I played around for a
bit and there doesn't seem to be any discernable pattern.

 

When it switches, I can see what looks like a flicker on the band selection
dropdown when this happens,  so I think it's something related to the
controls, and not an issue with my rig interface. I have no issues on FT8. I
dropped the power to just above zero (so low that I couldn't hear anything
with the rig monitor on), and still had the issue, so I don't think it's
RF-related.

 

I switched back to FT-8 after these issues and other than resetting the
audio input level (I'm running the 64-bit version), I didn't make any other
adjustments. (I have a separate FT-4 configuration but other than just
having it populated with FT-4 frequencies it's identical to my default FT-8
configuration.

 

I'm using an Icom 7600 and haven't had any issue with rig control errors at
all, either in WSJT-X or elsewhere.

 

What can I do to help troubleshoot?
