    I've resolved the problem.  In the CW Skimmer application, I had to swap the I/Q channels.  Once I made the change, the waterfall on CW Simmer was in sync with the Flex's panadapter.

    Hi Chuck,
    Is this the setting you changed in the snapshot below?    The Arrow points to the correct setting and I assume you had the Q/I selection set.  Is that correct?  If so I'll add the symptom and fix to the next version of the troubleshooting notes.  They are available on the SDR-Bridge site and my web page:

    Yes, this is the setting.  The default when I installed CW Skimmer was Q/I and it needs to be I/Q.  I had not found the support document when I was initially configuring and I was using the trial and error method!

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph.
