It looks like I had installed Winlink but never used it. I have removed it and along with any of the folders/data. I am still getting the same error etc. Seems to me we should be able to find out what the process it that is running the the background and kill it /remove it. I have poked around with the task manager and don't see anything. I spend 2 hrs on this yesterday and did the suggestion of adding send/receive ports, I see there are some rules that allow TCP to use any/all with VarAC/Vara... I also have tried some of the other suggestions but has not worked. We need to find out what is causing this =Winlink Priority= to lock up the interface.

I show vry few stations calling CQ, most in the robo beacon mode. Need more action here! Band condx are still very poor here daytime on 20m. You can call CQ until the cows come home!

Gary, You are right, I think I am missing some data with that narrow filter on. I have made some changes to the 7300, think it will work better hi , 73 Gary

@irad d ok, will pass the info on.. Thanks, 73 Gary

I have had this happen a few times while in qso, the handshaking just stops, goes on for over a minuet most times the other station just drops the connection and starts up again. The db readings are ok , not sure if other sigs/ noise are taking it down or?? I would think that the watch dog timer would kick in after 10-20 sec of inactivity and start up the handshaking???

I just notice while on JS8, they are using 10.300 , FYI...
