Band and antenna error

Post by PG5FRL »

This one got me totaly off-guard and took me some time to reproduce.

While checking my log I noticed that sometimes the wrong antenna was in the log. If there was an error with the logged antenna it was always my 6m antenna, regardless of the band I used.

I found out that it went wrong when I opened the settings -> program configuration menu and then press 'Save and apply' (you don't have to make any changes in the settings). The band changes to 6m, mode to FT8. The used antenna changed to my 6m antenna.

The active frequency display however does display the correct frequency, so this change got unnoticed to me. When the QSO is logged by JTDX the correct band and mode are logged (JTDX send those to Log4OM), but the antenna stays on 6m and will be faulty logged.

Log4OM v2: version v2.28.0.0
Cat control: Hamlib, flrig stable
flrig: version 2.0.0.1, Icom 7300
JTDX: version 2.2.159-32A
