    I just tested my N1MM+ setup in CW mode and found that ALT+F5 swapped slices, antennas, filters, etc.  I have N1MM configured for SO2R.  I have Smart CAT configured to use a COM port for each slice and OTRSP.  I use a USB controlled relay connected to my 6600M to do antenna switching. I can send you screen shots if you like.  -Joe

    Since you have your antenna switch integrated with the Flex, I guess you get it to do everything (I assume your ANT inputs do not move with Alt+F5 but your actual antennas follow on the external antenna switch).

    I have not integrated my antenna switch as I do have a few multi band antennas, also sometimes more than one antenna for a band. I manually switch my Green Heron client on the desktop. I do not need/want any automatic switching. All I would be happy with would be to swap VFOs (which it does) AND swap VFOs receive ANT and transmit ANT. Basically, I want everying from slice 1 to move over to slice 2 and vice versa. Maybe this may need to be a custom client that I somehow integrate into a N1MM+ macro. Thinking...

    Everything moves when I do ALT-F5.  It works just like you want it to.  What was on slice A is now on slice B.  Ant inputs move and my antennas switch moves.  Give it a try.

    I did try. Slice 1 kept ANT1/ANT1 and Slice 2 stayed with ANT2/ANT2. I know that N1MM+ does not instruct the radio to change antennas. Could this be your profiles doing an implicit switch? 73 Andy KU7T
