When changing from one band to another (say from MF to LF) - things
can get tricky. For example, if the receiver is changed from 474.2
Khz USB to 136.0 Khz USB and then the WSPR program's band is changed
on-the-fly, for some period of time WSPR will think the radio is
still on 474.2 Khz. With the rig actually on 136.0 Khz USB, an RF
carrier arriving on 137.435 Khz would produce an audio tone at 1435
Hz. But at upload time if WSPR thought the radio was still tuned to
474.2 Khz it would report that 1435 Hz audio signal as being on
474.635 Khz. Perhaps the safest way to switch bands is to tick the
"idle" box, wait till it stops receiving and completes any uploads,
make the band change both at the rig and in the program, then untick
the box. Or let WSPR control the radio directly.
