Bill G4WJT and group,
Here is how to reproduce the problem as I described earlier today:
Rig: Kenwood TS-590SG using USB rig control
WSJT in FT8 mode
Turn dial on radio to 14090
Go to File->Settings and hit the OK button on ANY Tab Page (General,
Radio, Audio, Tx Macros, Reporting, Frequencies, Colors, Advanced)
The rig will QSY to 14074
This is especially annoying when I see a spot for a DXpedition in F/H
mode. I first tune to their frequency to find out if I can hear/see them.
When I do, I go to settings and go into Hound mode, hit OK, and boom,
I am QSYed to the standard FT8 freq.
Thanks for looking into this & 73,
Tim N6GP
Tim,
my call is G4WJS.
I thought I addressed this issue.
As I said above, a CAT reset will cause a shift to a working frequency,
to be specific the lowest working frequency available for the current
band and mode combination. Going to "Settings" and making a change can
cause a CAT reset.
Please try my suggestion, which is used successfully by many users, to
create a separate configuration for FT8 DXpedition Hound mode. Once set
up you can tailor the working frequencies in that configuration to those
of the latest DXpedition you are chasing. Switching configurations is
quicker, i.e. less mouse clicks, than entering the Settings and making
the change there. returning to "normal FT8 mode or whatever your
preference is requires another simple configuration switch. You also
have the settings options "General->Monitor returns to last used
frequency" and "Monitor off at startup" to fine tune exactly what
happens when you switch configurations or start the application from cold.
