Smart SDR (Windows) Power Genius XL (PGXL) Meter SWR and Unresponsive

So what is it? Wrong search string, the issue is addressed over here and here's the fix? Is it a problem that only I have? It's not really hurting anything other than I'll never be able to tune my antenna and see what the Amp is registering for an SWR if it's less than 1.25:1 because that's what it registers all the time unless its higher than that. Suggestions?

Since upgrading to 2.8 I am seeing the same thing so it is not only on 3.x.x versions.

Thank you Gentlemen. It's refreshing to know that I'm not alone and that what I'm seeing isn't an individual user induced problem. If by any chance either of you can recall where this is addressed or discussed or even how its described it might help me better understand how things are described so I can more easily find answers to my own questions without posting repeat articles.
Thanks again...

Hello,
I have just bought the AMP(3.6.24 and Tuner(1.1.8) so brand new user.
Do you all have the SWR in SmartSDR/Power Genius XL area indicating 1,25:1 even in RX? That is the situation here with 2.8.1 SmartSDR version.
When i installed the AMP and Tuner Genius I had v2.7.6 on the Flex 6700. Everything was fine while testing. Later the day I updated all my software and when testing again I had the SWR indicating 1,25:1 all the time even with no TX?! First I thought it was a software problem and rebooting everything but it is still there so I searched and found this article.
If it is a known bug and someone is working on it that's OK for me.
Best regards,
