I have a Kenwood Ts-2000 and ran into a similiar situation a few weeks ago. It turned out that the freq don't update when the radio is in Memory mode. I had recently programmed in all the local repeaters and had it scan them in memory mode. While it is scanning it appears similiar to how yours does. I have the PC light but no updates until I put it back in VFO mode. Michael, AA5SH --- In dxlab@..., "Dave AA6YQ" <aa6yq@...> wrote:

Re: Windows XP to Windows 7
<<<<However, I have now started using the backup that is an integral part of
Windows 7 professional and find it far more reliable than Ghost. Also, now every file on my system has a list of previous versions that can be restored with a couple of clicks. You don't even have to start up the backup program to access backed up previous versions of a file. That backup is available in Windows 7 Home premium but unfortunately that version will not work over a network.>>>> My three Win 7 systems are all Win 7 Professional. They were installed by my company's IT consultant, and they work fine with the occasional "getting-to-know-you" glitch. I am now using Acronis "True Image Home 2010" So far it seems to work fine and seems much more intuitive than Ghost. <<<<That is one of several reasons why I decided that Windows 7 professional is worth the extra bucks.
