Aurora - Anyone else experiencing bugginess?
I received my Aurora in January. When it works, it's great. But rarely a day goes by when my radio exploits aren't interrupted by some glitch or bug; some more serious than others. Here is a brief summary of what my experience has been:
1. Frequent “Return loss fault occurred” and “Interlock is preventing transmission” errors. I am running two antennas (EFHW and Vertical), each of which tuned up fine with my Yaesu FT-710, and I have these errors with both of them.
2. My power output meter often stops showing my power output. Keying the mic and starting a QSO shows nothing on the power meter or SWR. Oddly, when I reboot the radio, this functionality comes back.
3. When I start SmartSDR, most -- but not all - of the time the CAT and DAX programs load at the same time. CAT will sometimes load but show no connection and sometimes CAT will not load at all. I have to reboot SmartSDR to get everything to load properly.
I am running on a fully updated version of Windows 11. In short, my radio is buggy. Are others having this sort of experience? I have created a HelpDesk ticket but have not heard anything yet.
