antenna selection problems

I have a 6700. Just received it back after product enhancement. I'll start with the simple case for now. I have a single panadaptor displayed with a single slice receiver. I am using 40 meters (actual band does not really matter). I have ant 1 selected for both receive and transmit. Life is good and everythiong works as expected. I now want to change the receive antenna to another antenna that is connected to ant2, keeping transmit on ant1. As soon as I select ant2, all signals go away. If I then select the transmit ant as ant2, the signals come back. In summary, if I have different antennas selected for receive and transmit, I hear no signals. If I have receive ant equal to transmit antenna, all is fine.

It gets even stranger if I have more than one panadaptor displayed.

So what is going on?

Thanks,
Tim K8XS
