Ken, I have never experienced this problem. I use CWX all the time, although I admit never in as intense an environment as Field Day.

I wonder if the folks at Flex have heard of this? Guys? 73, Ken Alexander VE3HLS ________________________________ From: Mike <mi...@m0aws.co.uk> To: flexradio@flex-radio.biz; k.alexan...@rogers.com Sent: Friday, July 5, 2013 4:04:24 AM Subject: Re: FlexRadio Digest, Vol 99, Issue 3 Hi Ken, CWX is extremely unreliable, I have seen all sorts of problems with it, even a complete cold boot of the PC! I've had the same problems as you with using the predefined messages, works great for a while then boom, goes off on one and often find I have to either restart PSDR or reboot the PC to fix it, this is with a Flex3000. For CW you will be much better off using an external programmable keyer, much more reliable. Best 73, Mike.
