When using Shift-click on the waterfall to set the TX frequency, the "Rig
Control Error" popup is displayed. Clicking the "Show Details..." button shows
the following error information:

This error has not occurred using WSJT-X 2.6.1. My configuration is as follows:
Radio: Yaesu FT-710
Software stack:
* Win4YaesuSuite (latest version)
* Software control of the radio. Also provides virtual COM ports (using
com0com) to allow additional software to access the CAT control stream.
* CAT connection to radio on COM3. Provides CAT virtual CAT connections
on COM7, COM9, COM11, COM13, and COM15.
* 3rd party software connections are mentioned below. COM13 and COM15
connections are used for unrelated programs not involved in FT8/FT4 operation.
* DXLabs Suite (latest version)
* Has additional software control features for the radio but lacked the
virtual COM support. Control program needed to support additional functions of
the suite.
* Used for general logging and other functions.
* Connects to CAT interface on COM9
* N1MM+ (latest version)
* Used for contest logging.
* Connects to CAT interface on COM11
* WSJT-X
* Normally use 2.6.1. Downloaded 2.7.0-RC2 to check out some of the new
features.
* Connects to CAT interface on COM7
* JTAlert for WSJT-X (latest version)
* Better visual representation of decodes.
The DXLabs and N1MM+ portions of the stack are not involved in this error as
they are not in the stack between WSJT-X and the radio. They are shown for
completeness.
Please let me know if you have any questions or need more information to help
track this down. For now I have reverted back to v2.6.1 so I can continue
working FT8/FT4.
