V-e-e-ery interesting!!
There is this problem is known and fixed by many users O2.
When I have addressed with this problem in the TenTec service center to me
have advised to send my device to England for guarantee repair.
I live in the city of Nadym (GL:MP65GM) which 3000 kilometers from Moscow
are almost, and then to England, approximately as much. I think a way remote
for my device and probably ineffectual.
Probably it is necessary to expect the next addition in program maintenance
of the transceiver where this problem can be solved. Or all this is solved
technical adjustments?
