[Elecraft] OK... I give up on what is happening...

[David Cole]

Hi Ken,
I am in CW mode...  It acts exactly as you describe, but when in CW
mode, I never see the REV below CW, and I have checked, the rig stays in
CW mode...

There is some difference between this rig and the Pro III, and II...
This issue never happened using the Icom rigs.  It strikes me that as
long as I am in CW, and not CW REV, everything should be the same, and
NOTHING should matter...  However, something is not the same...  Right
now I am suspecting that something is different in MixW, but I have my
old .ini file from the Pro III days, and the setup looks the same so
far...  I am going through it line by line...

> Which DATA mode you are in affects the sideband selection.    DATA MODE A normally uses USB for all bands (see the Elecraft manual on "Data Mode Selection", page 31 in may manual.      It's easy to end up with a different Data Mode and then things vary band to band.   When you activate the Data Mode button, it shows USB or LSB.   If you change data mode, or the sideband selection, I believe those are saved on a per band  basis, so when come back to a band, you get the last selection.  You might have to go through and correct it on all the bands individually.
