    The issue only happened to me once so far, I was in receive for over an hour and was just changing bands, from 10 to 15 meters. I do not have a computer connected, not running SmartSDR on a computer. I am using the 6400M stand-alone. I also have a very intensive ground system in the shack, over 20 10 ft copper clad ground rods all cadweld together with 00 wire. As I stated above, the first error was a Maestro error, then after reboot I got the Radio in Use error, followed by a reboot lockup, then a third boot to finally recover.

    Anyone heard of a fix for this.  My 6400M is doing it twice a day now.  It's ticket number 6143.

    I can confirm that I only see this when there is a network failure of some point.  In my case, if my VPN to the remote goes flakey, I get the radio in use message.  That is between the 6300 and a Maestro (not on SmartLink).  

    I have yet to see (again, only my personal view) my 6600 and the other Maestro present that message unless I had a power bump in the house.

    Just food for thought.

    Will this be addressed with the last version 1.11.12 I have even changed to a managed switch signal strength is always all green bars when it happens and has been doing this a least once or twice during the day when it’s on. Using flex 6500 and maestro together. Thanks Jerry,

    You probably should have already updated to version 2.2.8 where any issues I was having were corrected been running perfect since I updated the first day it was offered.

    does anyone know if this issue (6143) has been fixed.  To day my 6600M started randomly rebooting, I am using V-3.0.19 and it has done it 3 times n about 3 hours while listening for E3 on FT8. I am using the front panel client with CAT/DAX only.

    Thanks,
