GPSDO option with FLEX-8600 any problems?

RCVD my 2nd 8600 W/GPSDP option, 1st unit had pblms replaced by FLEX. Now 2nd unit
using WSJT-X WSPR mode is off FREQ by 1HZ 80MTRS to as much as 7HZ on 10MTRS. It appears after the 8600 is on in excess of 12HRS it settles down. But the same thing happens next time its turned on. Have had the 6500, 6600 both spot on frequency after GPSDO locks up. I think this is a different GPSDO in 8600.

Can you post a screen shot of the GPSDO screen please. What is the ppb part?

GM Mike TKS, FYI the Radio Setup, GPS Tab - UTC time is not in sync with the bottom right of the FLEX 8600 display. I have the screen shot here but see no way to add it to this post.

Let me suggest or note the procedure I use to capture a screen shot and then post to an email or this window. Open the Radio Setup, Select GPS or wherever you screen is. Be sure that that screen is selected and "in front" of all others. Press ALT and Print Screen at the same time….. Then go to the Leave a Comment section and Press CNTRL and "V" at the same time…. Here is mine using those steps.

Won't work for me, TNX anyway.

Disregard my query, I have opened a ticket with the help desk. TKS Steve/n6kog

OK. Let them know it is a GNSS not a GPSDO and include the screen shot.

TKS Mike, but that's not my screen shot. I do have the GPSDO installed in my 8600, but for what ever reason, I can't do a screen shot on this dell cpu. By the normal "Press ALT & Print" then go to this box & hit "Ctrl & V". I use the "SNIP" to get a screen shot, but can't put it here.
