FlexRadio 8600 con 3.918, PGXL 3.8.9 siempre Full Power

Hola,
Ayer actualice el 8600 a 3.9.18, todos mis problemas de la version anterior como la interrupcion del CAT, se fueron, pero al probar el PGXL con 3.8.9 sin SWR en mis antena, veo que con cualquier entrada de RF, 5w, marca full power 2KW y avisos de interlock.

Por precaucion, no porbe mas y volvia a 3.8.23, entonces puedo usar de nuevo mi PGXL.

E visto problemas de SWR alta en esta actualizacion, pero no e visto a nadie con Fuul Power .

Saludos
EC5K Vic.

    Hello,
    Yesterday I updated my 8600 to 3.9.18. All my issues from the previous version, such as CAT interruption, are gone. However, when I tested the PGXL with 3.8.9 without SWR on my antenna, I see that with any RF input, 5W, it displays full power at 2KW, and interlock warnings.

    Just as a precaution, I didn't test any more and went back to 3.8.23. Then I can use my PGXL again.

    I've seen high SWR issues with this update, but I haven't seen anyone using Full Power.

    Hola Vic,

    Usando el Traductor de Google

    Después de actualizar la radio a la versión 3.9.18, conéctala con SmartSDR y, una vez conectada, reinicia el PG XL. Esto debería solucionar el problema del medidor.

    Hola, de momento el problema con el PGXL esta solucionado, pase de nuevo a 3.9.18 y esta vez el ampli funciono correctamente.

    Con el ampli en Stanby, algunos carteles de interlock al transmitir, creo que esta version a mi no me va muy fina...

    Tambien al igual que con 3.8.23, el CAt se queda parado al cambiar de banda desde SmartSDR, la solucion es apagar CAT y volver a arrancar y sobre todo estar muy atento de no hacer muchos contactos sin tener la Freq correcta...

    Hi, the PGXL issue is fixed for now. I went back to 3.9.18 and this time the amp worked correctly.

    With the amp on standby, I got some interlock messages when transmitting. I think this version isn't working very well for me...

    Also, like with 3.8.23, the CAT freezes when changing bands from SmartSDR. The solution is to turn CAT off and back on, and above all, be very careful not to make too many contacts without having the correct Freq...
