in SmartSDR for Windows

I notice this on two different bands, with TUN integration active. My 80m needs tuning about 3.800 so I dial over too 3.975 GA SSB net hit the Tune button nothing happened. I restarted SmartSDR no change. I only tune my antenna with Tuner App

using trick to uncheck the PGXL inside the tuner app didn't help

    At what Frequency does it start to work? It could be (and I am guessing) that a TUNE defaults to USB internally and your LPF for SSB is a very large number that takes you out of band. Without a screen shot I am sort of guessing the issue.

    i MUST have explained it wrong, normally I don't use a tuner below 3.800 above that I need to use a tuner. so on GA SSB Net I dialed up 3.975 and hit the tune button TUN Operate is GREEN and nothing happened. I started the Tuner Genius XL app select band A and hit TUNE and it tuned the freq.

    I have rebooted the radio same thing

    I have rebooted the TGXL (SO2R) Nothing

    everything looks like tuner integration is working but it's not

    I have to use the TGXL app to tune my wire.

    I have attached a screenshot

    Did you remove DC power from the radio for at least a minute after 3.10 upgrade?

    Hey Dave,

    I've been removing power for 30 seconds for a long time per instructions at the time. Has it been determined that a full minute is required now ? Or perhaps it changed after an upgrade back there somewhere ?

    Thanks, 73 Russ KR6W

    No but I always got in habit of a minute from the M series power up. The main thing is if you remove DC cable vs turning off the supply then you don’t have to worry about the voltage slowly dropping due to capacitors in the supply.
