Tx Band Setting Chart

Tom W3FRG

I finally got around to purchasing Ver 3.
Starting fresh, I created 8 new Profiles for using my Amp and set up the "Tx band Settings" Table.
When I turned on the radio today only 4 of the settings, check marks, appeared in the "Tx band Settings" Table.

As I selected another Band then another Tx Setting appeared on the Table.
It wasn't until I had sequentially selected all of my profiles that all of the check marks appeared for the 8 Bands chosen to appear on the "Tx Band Setting" Table.
Shouldn't they all appear regardless of what Profile(s) are first selected?

Any help would be appreciated.

Tom, you would think that Tx Band Setting would work and stay set, but I have given up on relying on it as it seems to change from my settings every time I look at it. It seems to get over-ridden when you make changes to the profiles. I absolutely hate this about the new Flex SSDR. I am loosing hope that Flex will ever fix this mess.

I agree, so what I am forced to do is set a max power output for the entire Flex. That stays put. Yes it is a huge PITA but I would rather have that than an amp issue (even though it is protected).

Gary, this problem has been very well documented and Eric opened a discussion about this a little while ago getting all the feed back they need to understand what needs to change and why.

No need to give up hope of a reselution. I'm sure everyone understands that changes will not be made till the next release. They are working on this.

And, we all anxiously await the release of that upgrade.
Hopefully, it does what we all need and require and isn't full of other little surprises as Auto Save was when it was found out.

This problem has been Extremely annoying. Almost everytime I go to a band and need my amp to work this bug bites me. Is there any workaround to make RCA TX1 work everytime?

David Decoons, wo2x

Are you using any third party software? DDUtil can override TX Band Settings if settings in DDUtil are not set correctly.

just a thought.

Dave,

Yes, I use DDUtil version 4.0.1.09 to control my Palstar AT-Auto and CX-Auto.   I looked around and thought that the autodrive tab could be useful for that but I am not sure how to set it up? Is that what you use for a workaround? Please advise. THANK YOU! 73

Hi Dan

t9morrow I will post my DDUtil settings. You will need to be using DDUtil version 4 for compatibility with SmartSDR 2.6.1 or 3.x.x

Dave,  I upgraded to 4.0.1.09 DDUtil    What is the magic checkbox to make RCA TX1 work all the time on all bands? TX Band Settings has a mind of it's own.
TIA!  Happy Thanksgiving!
