V4 SWR meter display even in RX

in SmartSDR for Windows

Upgraded to V4 radio 6400

I noticed that while in receive, I have a reading on the SWR meter that flickers between nothing and 1.5. Again I'm not Transmitting

My take is that this is a V 4 glitch. Anyone else seeing this?

    Can you post a screen shot? Is this in SmartSDR or an M Panel. Is the SWR meter doing double duty as a S Meter as well?

    … and is this on the analog or digital meter (or both)?

    this is just sitting like this with an S1 showing on my S meter . Could be mimicking the S meter, but why?

    Hmmm, I'm not sure about the interface with the Power Genius, but this does look like something do with it specfically. (e.g. the AMP tab)

    I'd suggest you open a Help Desk Ticket, as they will be very familiar with what to expect on this part of the interface.

    That is the SWR meter on the PGXL. I would reboot both the radio and the pgxl and see if you still have the issue.
