Jim,
I highly suggest that you post this issue on the RemoteRig forum at
http://www.remoterig.com/forum/index.php for the RemoteRig developers to
answer. They do not read the Elecraft reflector.

The firmware on the RemoteRig units are identical, no changes had been made there. The coax for the remote station is all new 400Max series fromDXEngineering, which was thoroughly tested when installed two months ago.
