    What you can do is install 2.6 or 3.1.  That will update DAX to the latest build.

    If you don't like 2.5, you can then go back and run 2.4 (do not uninstall the previous versions - no need to do so regardless what others say).

    Now, when you run 2.4, it will  use the latest version of DAX.  Give that a try.

    Thanks for supporting the team and purchasing 3.

    Thanks Michael and I am a little confused by your solution. SSDR ver. 2.4.9 works great with the older version of DAX. Yesterday I paid for version 3 of SSDR which has the latest version of DAX which is causing a problem. A known problem according to Eric at Flex.

    I thank you for the reply but if I understand correctly, you're stating that I should go back to version 2.4.9 of SSDR but keep the newer ver. of DAX found in 2.5 and above which has this known problem? Heck, if I must go back to ver. 2.4.9 does that mean I can return ver. 3 to Flex for a refund? I do not want to go there. I simply started this thread in the hopes that someone smarter than me has found a better work around for this KNOWN problem besides what I mentioned above.

    Right now nearly every time I change bands/profiles I must bring up DAX and fix it as well.

    John, if you are using the 64 bit of WSJT-X , try the 32 bit

    Thanks Ed. I used the WSJT-X reference above because many folks were using that software. The problem is much less apparent if I use wsjt to change bands rather than the profiles in SSDR. But doing so defeats the purpose of profiles.

    Even if wsjt is not running, I see the same problem.

    Oh, and thanks for the old link where Eric admits it's an issue, I updated my HD ticket with this info. Wish Tim had told me this was an outstanding DAX issue and I was not loosing my mind.
