Hello Jeff, I have noticed that too but I found in my case it was due to my serial ports not always being connected when DDUtil was coming up or the serial ports not being connected to the PC/or on when the PC was coming up...
Unless the ports are assigned the same each time you bring up your PC, DDUtil will not know what to do and start assigning incorrect port addresses for you. Other than this issue I have never had DDUtil not remember the correct port. 73's, Dennis k0eoo -----Original Message----- From: flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz [mailto:flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz] On Behalf Of Jeffrey Brown Sent: Monday, July 04, 2011 8:20 AM To: Flex reflector Subject: [Flexradio] DDUtil profiles I'm wondering if anyone else has had trouble with DDUtil not remembering the settings after it's been shut down? About 75% of the time when I start up the program, at least one of the COM port settings has changed. What I did was put everything exactly like I want it, make notes in the space provided as to programs and ports, and then save the profile. That way I can easily recall the profile after the program loads up to have the necessary configs to operate. It's an easy fix but a little annoying. It works fine after recalling the program. In case it matters, here's my order of operations: turn on PS, turn on Flex5k, load DDUtil, load Minideluxe (in RCP2 as suggested and not RCP1), load HRD Logger.... I'm using what I believe to be the most current version of DDUtil which is 2.0something. I can't remember the exact number but I did upgrade from 1.8 and it's a whole lot more stable now. The computer is Win7 Ultimate x64. Maybe I just need to uninstall and re-install program? I know VSPmgr specifically says to run in WinXP compatibiltiy mode as Admin. Do I need to do that with this program, too? Also I think I remember the instructions for VSPmgr saying to save it to C:\ and not in Program Files as windows typically wants to install it. I couldn't find anything specifically recommending these actions for this program. Maybe that would help? I think maybe these programs are written my the same person? Also, one last question I haven't found addressed in the wiki is what program should be used for RCP1? I only ask because Minideluxe said not to use it there, which is where I would've naturally thought to put it. Is it reserved for some specific program or just a conflict with that program for whatever reason? I'm really enjoying this learning process and playing around with SDR. All that can be done with software control using just a computer and firewire cable totally amazes me! Thanks for the input or maybe leading me in the direction to find out more. Enjoy the holiday.
