DIV clears receive ANT in slice

in SmartSDR for Windows

Not sure if this has been reported, but found a minor display issue when I select DIV it clears the receive antenna displayed in the slice. Doesn't matter which antenna that was selected prior to selecting DIV, and it doesn't matter from what slice you do it from.

The 1st screen shot shows ANT1 being cleared after hitting DIV. Now I can go and select an antenna and it does display it, however it gets clears when you hit the DIV button to shut off diversity. If I do not select an antenna in slice A, it still shows an empty receive antenna when I shut off diversity as shown in the 2nd screen shot.

    When this occurs I take my 6600M out of DIV by clicking the DIV button. Then I close the remaining open slice. This of course puts the 6600M into "I don't hear anything mode" cuz there ain't no slices cookin on the stove. Then I double-click my cursor on the pad adapter and a new slice is created which reestablishes ANT1. A little bit cluggie ... but it works ... until there's a software update ...


    ** AND YES ... I'M STILL WAITING FOR AN EMAIL ON MY 6700 ORDER ... FROM LAST SEPTEMBER **

    Mike, has this been confirmed as a known issue and added to the fix it list ?

    Does not do this in SSDR iOS or in my NodeRed dashboard when I select DIV, oh wait, I created the flows so I made sure it displays it correctly, or at least to my liking, lol.

    I've re-test with v3.73 on my 6700 with the same results. When selecting DIV it blanks out the RXant in the original slice, when de-selecting DIV the RX ANT in the original slice remains empty, it is not visible. It should return RXant to it's original setting prior to DIV selection. For demonstration see below, where RXant is ANT1. I am running v3.73 on a 6700, tried this on 3 separate computers.

    BEFORE selecting DIV: RXant is visible

    AFTER selecting DIV: RXant is not visible

    AFTER de-selecting DIV: RXant is not visible
