My graphics slider is all the way to the right. However, thanks for the
tip if problems start.

Same problem here when attempting to enter a frequency from the keypad
with the Pegasus program in the background. The gpf screen comes up but
the radio continues to operate . I then select "recover" from CrashShield
and everything is back to normal. The radio continues to operate without a
hitch throughout the gpf and returns to the same frequency (freq doesn't
change).

I multi-task with LOGic5, which is my logging program, and it also runs
the packet TNC and rotor controller. I do notice one new feature within
the logging program not operating properly but cannot attribute it to the
Pegasus.

The computer is a 233Mhz, socket 7 Pentium with 64MB RAM with Entegra hub
2U4S serial port expander. The Pegasus operates on Com 5.
