as decodes are the summary of a whole period of receiving it is not possible to determine which frequency a decode should be attributed to if the receiver frequency is changed mid-period. Actually it would be possible but the programming effort would be considerable for what is a minor edge case resulting in the occasional inaccurate spot being posted. Incidentally JTAlert takes the view that decodes in the first minute after a frequency change are not worth alerting from or posting to Hamspots. WSJT-X does not take this view and assumes all decodes are for the frequency set at the end of the period. With respect to retrying CAT commands, using the direct Hamlib rig control feature there are many retries before a rig error is reported. If you are getting a rig control error message then, either the period of non-responsiveness you are reporting is many seconds long or, there is an issue with the CAT emulation of PowerSDR. What is the rig control error message you get when you switch profiles? Specifically what is show when you click the "Show Details ..." button in the rig control error message window. 73 Bill G4WJS. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Find and fix application performance issues faster with Applications Manager Applications Manager provides deep performance insights into multiple tiers of your business applications.
