Jose has supplied a better registration code and all is now working OK. Just as a point of reference for future issues like this: the fact that VARA reports REGISTERED only indicates that the license has been accepted if it is followed by the callsigns that are registered. e.g. REGISTERED M5KVK M5KVK-R M5KVK-T Gareth

I think I've got to the bottom of the problem. When I registered, I had a typo in my callsign. The confusion was VARA saying it was registered

Thanks for the suggestion. It was off a bit. Getting better results now.

If you look in VARA Commands window in the first pic, you'll see the string REGISTERED. I assumed this is the VARA modem reporting that it is licensed, Is this not so?

Next time I see this, I'll do a screen capture.

Thanks, I'll give that a try; though I have to say that I've not sensed any issues with the calibration before.

Hope this helps

Sadly, that makes do difference. I entered the reg code and set it back to monitor mode but I still get the evaluation warning. So, I deleted the reference to the monitor VARA in VarAC settings and restarted. No difference. I clearly see VARA send REGISTERED to VarAC, but it's being ignored. For reference, I'm running VARA v4.6.9 and VarAC v6.3.3
