I've been using my YCCC SO2R+ 4-radio box for several years now, and I'm very pleased with it.
Just lately, however, it seems that, each time I switch it on, it has 'forgotten' its settings and corrupted the firmware.
This manifests itself in the SO2R Box program by showing Radio 1, Radio 1, Radio 3, Radio4 in the middle of the window, instead of Radio 1, Radio 2, Radio 3, Radio 4. If I change it so the 2nd box reads Radio 2, it is quite happy to switch between radios on OTRSP command. However, the second manifestation of the problem remains, namely that the RX audio does not switch correctly - I can hear radio 1 and radio 2 in the left ear, even though I have asked it to switch to only radio 2.
I re-load the firmware, using the SO2RBox Utility and all is well.
Next time I switch it on, things have reverted to the errors described above.
Is there some kind of backup that has failed? I can see no sign of a battery or a large capacitor in the schematic, so I guess it is in the PIC. Could that lose its ability to retain its setting?
Any advice would be gratefully received.
Thanks,
