[NA-User] Interface problem

[Jim White, K4OJ]

I noted a similar thing just before SS... no biggee...

when you first turn on the rig and computer instead of everything 
aligning on the same band (and panic starts setting in) I tried some 
band switching and things got "on the same page" (or band)

It almost seemed like the rig and the computer were waiting for the 
other to take the first step so they could learn who would lead and 
would follow... once they started talking they were fine all weekend long...

It was almost as though the ice had to be broken on a first date...

73 - see everyone in the 10 meter contest...
