Ernie This is the same symptom we experienced in Belize. In our case it was probably related to high SWR and radiation in the shack. I think the error message was "USB not installed", or similar. USB is unchecked in setup after the error. Solutions were everything from a simple power down of the console re-checking the usb in setup - to - having to press the power button on the computer to end a lock up condition of the powersdr.exe, then re-installing the USB device.
We did not figure it out. Can also be caused by bad ground loop.

I checked several times and the USB adapter is checked in the setup menu, but after the error occurs the box is unchecked. Same problem with preview 4. I tried uninstalling, and then reinstalling 1.4.4, but now I get high a SWR message, even into a dummy load, the only difference here is that the USB port remains activated. I have been using the radio successfully for the last two weeks, and this problem just started today Could it be a hardware problem?
