Hi Ben, thankyou for your suggestions, all of which I have tried (except the

no difference. However I may not have explained the issue clearly enough.

Mike;
What kind of computer are you using, and which OS? That will determine the
proper answer to your questions.
If a MacBook or MacBook Pro with a recent version of macOS, then the serial

I was a K3 field tester. There were no NDAs, except Wayne and Eric asked
us to keep our mouths shut until told otherwise. As far as I know, we
all did. At some point we were encouraged to talk about our experiences.
No, I am not a K4 field tester!

Surely you know better than expecting a beta tester to speak up at this point,

Hello Nigel,
I looked at this and appears there is a problem with recalling the desired

recalled. I don’t know if the same occurs for the SW ba

With this whip I can extend to a resonant quarter wave anywhere from 6m to

The second suggestion by Don sounds like it would be "more fun" and not take
up an additional five memories.

I'd have thought that superhet would always have the advantage of improved

Nyquist frequency so allowing for more detail in the sampled signal. Also
