Radio / Antenna and profiles

Stored radio and antenna is overwritten when editing a QSO.

Two profiles set up. “Home” and “Portable”.

On the home profile there is a radio “Xiegu G90” and antenna “Endfed 3 Band”
On the portable profile the radio is “Yaesu FT-818” and antenna “Wonderwand”

The portable radio and antenna do not exist on the home profile.

QSO Is stored in the portable profile and all is well. Later, back on the Home profile the record is OK shown on the grid, but when the QSO is opened the radio reverts to the incorrect G90 and Endfed. If a change is made, like locator or similar, the wrong radio antenna is stored.

You need to add the set up to the other profile in the configuration

Thanks Terry, I know that would fix it, but I think this should be considered a bug as the software is changing a record in a way that is not intended.For example if I’m working through some old records to add QSL reports, and happen to modify a record that has an old radio that I no longer have, then the record would be saved with my current radio - doesn’t seem safe to handle the data integrity that way.
