[Elecraft] Ham Radio Deluxe Version 5.1 Trouble with K-Line

[goldtr8 at charter.net]

Hi Rick,

I dont know about the random frequency jumps, but the changing of modes 
is someting new in version 5.1.  Some like it some dont.  Me I do not 
like it and there is discussion on maybe in the future that there is a 
selection to make it do what you want it to do.

Are you on the HRD group in yahoo groups, it has become quite active 
since the release of 5.1 and some good information is being exchanged 
and some shall we just say bad information also.

Cheers
