Ted,
We experienced all of the problems you did and one more. When doing a
ALT-F1 or F2 (Band UP/DOWN) the radios were set to the wrong sideband! We
hade radio time outs too. We were using a TS-440S and a FT-1000D.
When I went to import my logs, the .RES file was off 1 band high, and the
time was minus 7 hours, dispite the fact that both computer clocks were set
to GMT. Sure was alot of retyping with 450 QSO's!
Still beats paper and pencil and DUPE sheets!
73,
