Cannot TX on ANT2.

I don't think this has been reported yet and nothing in the release notes. I have a 6500/V1.0.0. I am not able to transmit on ANT2. I can only receive on ANT2. Also, the RX slice panel only displays ANT1 with ANT2 is selected.

We just completed comprehensive testing on the FLEX-6500 with SmartSDR v1.0.0 and cannot reproduce this behavior. Please power down the FLEX-6500, remove DC power from the radio for a few minutes and then power everything back up and let me know if you still are experiencing the inability to transmit on ANT-2.

Hummmm, I'll check when I get home and let you know...

Found the problem. I didn't know how to set the TX antenna. Figured it out and ANT2 works fine. I was setting the antenna in the pop-out display on the left thinking it was setting both TX-RX antennas and it wasn't. VERY sorry I gave you a start! This is what you don't need right now....

No problem!
