Ver3.4.21, New Issue -PGXL Delay
Installed Ver3.4.21 next day after release.
Initially could not see any issues. Started ARRL DX CW Contest on Friday and was running till midnight without any problem. Went to sleep around midnight and came back to continue in the morning. Could not continue TX as I was not sure what happening, like My Macro got huge delay and no one could get my callsign. Closed N1MM - same issue. 2-3 sec delay before RF getting out even I see and hear CW just fine.
Rebooted PC and, Maestro and 6600 - same issue.
Rebooted TGXL and PGXL - problem solved, continued with Contest.
Today had few QSO if FT8 and few hours later came back and started to CQ. It was no TX in FT8 and I tried to restart DAX with no success. Closed my log and tested only in CW - same issue as 2 days ago. So, my initial thought that it happened once after SW installation and I did not reboot all equipment at that time is wrong - now I have to deal with a new issue.
Does anyone else have the same intermittent issue?
Another issue that PGXL power reading disappeared on SSDR during ARRL DX Contest. Came back after reboot, will keep an eye on that one.
I never seen it before installing Ver3.4.21. See demo in the link.

Surgey, I opened a ticket for you regarding this so that it is tracked correctly.

I have a ticket opened and besides increase "TX delay from 25msec to a higher number I do not have it resolved.
Currently my TX Delay time is 30msec but I do not see a correlation. Once in one-two weeks I have to reboot PGXL to have it work properly. Otherwise I am loosing a K" letter completely when I transmit my call sigh KN7K before it will produce output.
It is definitely a new issue as I never seen it before last update and I use PGXL for a few years. Some sync issue introduced during latest update.
Also, not sure if it a new issue or one time event for TGXL - this morning it was giving me SWR 2.5 on Steppir 40m. When I put in in a Bypass mode, SWR was 1.03. Retuned TGXL and all potentiometers were at Zero's but SWR still was 2.5. Rebooted TGXL and SWR was 1.05 without Bypass mode. Another weird one...
Sergey, KN7K
