Hi Scott,
I tried turning off CIV Transsceive and it didn't help. I do run it on
because my amp requires that signal to track my rig. For the time being
I'll turn off reporting. I really don't want to spot the wrong
frequency if I turn the dial.
Thanks for the feedback.

Kevin, Fred,
Found the posts in the archive. The solution/work around was to turn
CI-V Transceive OFF.
In my case CI-V Transceive has always been off. Don't know what Fred
has set on his 7610.
I do see the lag in the frequency update on WSJT when tuning the radio
VFO but it always catches up and displays the correct frequency.
What Fred and I are seeing appears to be a different issue.
This is my take on what is happening from a 50k foot user's
perspective. Someone that can dig into the code may have a different
take on it
The radio is tuned to whatever frequency.
Launch WSJT-X. WSJT-X initializes and reads the radio frequency.The
frequency display on the main screen is initialized and the correct
frequency is displayed. Another register/variable within the code is
also initialized with the same frequency.
The user manually tunes the radio dial.
The frequency tracks correctly on the main screen of WSJT.
The mystery register/variable appears to be static and only gets
initialized at startup. This value is what gets used in logging the
decodes to the ALL.txt file and sent to external apps and servers via
the UPD and TCP/IP packets.
Logged contacts have the correct frequency which equals the
displayed frequency on WSJT+ DF.
One additional quirk I am seeing is if the radio is tuned to a normal
WSJT FT8 frequency. WSJT is launched all is good as expected.
The VFO on the radio can be changed to another frequency and
everything appears to track correctly. All.txt and spots on PSKR and
Hamspots have the new frequency. If the VFO is tuned again, the
frequency is not updated and the All.txt and spotting apps still have
the old frequency.
Shouldn't be too difficult for someone that is familiar with the code
to track the frequency variable that is used for the All.txt file, UDP
and TCP/IP packets and see what it is/is not doing when initialized
and when the VFO is tuned.

There was a frequency tracking issue with Icom rigs a couple of
years ago where CAT could not keep up with manual tuning; hence
the WSJT-X frequency and that of the rig could get out of sync.
This sounds awfully similar.
I don’t recall the specific fix, except that it was resolved
through adjustment of a CAT interface setting in the (sometimes
confusing) extensive menu system of my rig (an IC-9700). The
setting was non-intuitive but others with Hamlib experience were
able to help me resolve it.
On the positive side, if you search the archives for somethign
along of line of "Icom, CAT, tracking, error” then the thread will
turn up.
Hope this helps!

1.Set Radio to 14.000

4.Observe that spots in HamSpots are not correct.You will also
see that your frequency is not correct on the PSK reporter map.
If the Wsjtx VFO frequency does not change following the radio
than this is expected behavior. There is a problem with your CAT
connection IMO.
