[Orion] Orion lockup and sweep

[Mike Bragassa]

I was the one that posted the recent lockup question. I received many very similar suggestions; chief among them was to upgrade to 1.372. Did that with a master reset...prior...and all is well! (knock-on-wood)

As regards this particular post: No  I did not have the sweep on. Tend to forget it is there as not used to it..

Many thanks to all of you that responded!

  There has been an issue for a long time  that I am not sure is addressed yet. 
  Sometimes when on CW and also using the  sweep at the same time, the rig will 
  lockup. You lose transmit and receive and  rebooting the rig will bring it 
  back.  
   
  I have not experienced this lately, but  don't run the sweep at the same 
  time.  You might inquire to see if he is  running the sweep.  
   
  Just a thought!
