Gary,

At that time I was using the CT-17 to interface the radio and the
PW-1 amp.

You were probably seeing collisions between the radio's response to
WriteLog's polling and the PW-1.  You're lucky the bad frequencies
in WriteLog were the only problem with that configuration.

dedicated CI-V output for the PW-1 the bandmap jitters disappeared.  I
hadn't really thought about it much since there have been multiple WL
upgrades in the interim and I was thinking they fixed the bug, whatever
it was.  But now Joe has me thinking the it was probably an RF problem
that has somehow been "cured" by the MKII. Different length cables or
more ferrite cores?  Not sure, but it is no longer a problem for me.

I had the same problem, RF getting into the CV-I cable, that is if you are
using an ICOM rig.
When I went to a FLEX-3000 rig and used a virtual CAT cable, the problem
went away.  I don' t think it is a WL problem.

I am getting Erroneous Frequencies on my bandmap when I transmit.  Not
all
the time but quite often.

Is it RF causing this, or something else?
