I didn't expect this, but I'm having a bit of a problem with the beta version.
When I put it in, I could not longer tune many frequencies on 160/80 meters that
I used on a daily basis with the old version (1.41?).  I reloaded it several
times, going through the procedure to reload, etc.  I finally gave up and
reloaded 1.41 and everything was fine again.  Interestingly, it seemed I had the
most problem with the new firmware when I was near, but not on, resonant
frequencies.  Many times, when it will tune at 25 watts, it will not let the amp
turn on.
