Hi Bill,

changing frequency while transmitting works, so that doesn't seem to
be the problem. CAT works generally, it just fails sometimes in random
places so I think the cause is more like wsjtx issuing too many
commands too fast, or not waiting long enough for a retry.

Rarely, there seems to be a burst of rx/tx switches happening very
fast for half a second. (Much less frequent than the "normal"
communication failures.)

I guess it's WSJT_TRACE_CAT && WSJT_TRACE_CAT_POLLS? I can try that
tomorrow.

Thanks,
Christoph
