Hi, 

Thanks for the help on this!

I did find the problem, it was a setting where the filters for the sub RX wasn’t turned on for the corresponding filter width of the main RX. I remember some time ago my remote connection went crazy and the radio entered the settings menu. I also found a could of other settings being off, so all these have been returned to where I need them and second RX is now OK again.

As I am able to get it working again by going into filter settings and press SUB and then the RX dies when I do something with the radio (either directly or via CAT) it seems to be software related rather than hardware.

If I go into settings and filter settings, then press SUB the receiver starts. It continues working until I touch the filter adjustments or any of the other rotary encoders SHIFT, WIDTH, SPEED/MIC or CMP/PWR.
