[Dx4win] Changing modes in the QSO window

[Loren Hunt]

Mel,
Thanks. That did it. The mode field is no longer grayed out and I can change it.

Here is an interesting "feature":
After I clicked "ignore mode in Real-Time" I clicked on a 17M PSK spot and the rig went to CW. I hadn't set the CW cutoff on that band so I went to preferences and adjusted the CW cutoff. I then clicked the spot again. This time it went to SSB as expected but the "SSB" was grayed out in the QSO window again. I double checked it, when you change your rig preferences it un-clicks the "ignore mode in Real-Time" box. After re-clicking "ignore mode in Real-Time" all is well. So the one resets the other.  Now I know...

AD6ZJ, Loren

Radio menu, "ignore mode in Real-Time".
