Glad to know I wasn't the only one.  In my case the issue around 38 to 42C
is a big deal because that is where the PA sits when running JT65.  So it
makes that mode unusable.  If the odd break didn't happen until 52C I'd be
all set.  And it was definitely hopping all over the place (sometimes
rising, other times lowering, and in larger step changes than I was seeing
before).

I'm not so sure this isn't a problem with the radio locking onto a harmonic
of the tone as it shifts lower and lower in pitch.  I need to run the test
sometime with a scope on the output to see what the signal looks like as
gets very low in pitch.

Please let us know how it works out when you try it on air.

73, Bob, WB4SON
