Thanks Mike for reply i am getting fed up with it. maybe it is a time for hdr blah...it is a shame as log4om was quite good to me.

Hi Seb, ver. 2 is full of bugs and no sign of them being sorted best to revert back to your original version.

Congratulations on RTTY and tks to the Mentors. Both Mike SJX and myself are great rtty fans so if u need a test pse ask...FT8 and other modes are more popular but there's usually some about on 20/40 and on data contests
