    Dudley, I have been having issues with SSDR starting up. I have had to uninstall and reinstall SSDR to connect to the radio. I went through the pain of what seemed to be endless updating. I think version 1809 is in it but I will check to confirm. I gave up around midnight and the last attempt to start SSDR, the PC ceased and had to reboot 5 times before it finally connected. I have no idea what I will be encountering later today but I can only think it will be more jagged than a steak knife. The next major move will be if all else fails with this W10, I'll run it on a W7 machine and hope it never fails. Thanks all for the info.

    Greetings from ARS W2NPR...OK now that I am in front of the PC and the radio, I can confirm that I have the 1809 update. Surprisingly the PC started up and allowed me to start SSDR. I greatly appreciate the advice, info, and feedback. Here's to hoping it stays stable and proper. Cheers and 73 DE W2NPR

    Yes and it still failed. At this point I have no option but to completely abandon Windows 10. It is with extreme sadness that in my profession, I need to carry a highly unreliable Windows 10 laptop, a relatively reliable Windows 7 laptop, and my forever reliable Windows XP laptop in order to do my job. I never know which one is going to work. It is exponentially sad that the quality control and quality assurance from Microsoft has gone down the toilet never to be seen again.

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. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
