FT-847 Hamlib and USB/LSB

Didn't we talk about this one?. I can't find that post anymore.

Ver. 1.5.4

My FT-847 still changes bands mantaining SSB mode from the previous used mode.

So if I point to a DX on the Bandmap windows on 7 MHz or example, and the VFO was on 21 MHz USB, it changes to 7 MHz USB.

I think it is related with the order that commands are sent to hamlib.

And I also know this worked fine a few releases ago.

Any help appreciated, as I'm missing some DXCC when I don't notice the wrong mode is selected.

Thank you!

Hamlib and USB/LSB

Hi Eduardo,
 
I have the very same thing here on my TS-850. Still running CQRlog 1.5.2 though because I can't run the new version on my Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid). It has a dependency problem with libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0.
So, I am not sure yet whether USB/LSB works as it should in 1.5.4.

Oops.. my bad

I tried the 1.5.4 in Mint 14, which I have installed on a seperate partition on a regular HDD. Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid) is installed on an SSD.
 
Nevertheless, USB/LSB is perfectly chosen automatically. And that is where I saw my mistake. I never checked the "AUTO" checkbox in the main logging window. So, now it works fine with 1.5.2 in Lucid as well.
Sorry for my mistake,

I had the very same problem with my FT-857, may be it's tha same for FT-847
I solved setting the bandwith af all modes to 0 on Preferences-Modes page.
Hope this can help

Ooops, my fault.

Ooops, my fault.

Mode checkbox set to Auto (to auto fill RST 59 in log) + bandwith set to 0 as Marco suggested, et voila, happy camper again :)

Sorry. This wan not a bug but a user mistake.
