[DXBase] Radio not responding, intermittent?

[Steven R. Schmidt]

Mine does the same thing, but I'm using Win98SE.  I find that when I click
"no", I don't want to disable further requests to the radio, it pops right
over to the frequency I requested.  Has only been a minor annoyance for me,
since I don't use DXBase for contesting.

73,
