Hi All,

due to some recent Hamlib updates to resolve long standing issues with band changing on modern Yaesu rigs it has become necessary to do some urgent tests to verify correct behaviour. This concerns the following rigs and their variants:

FT-450
FT-891
FT-950
FT-991
FT-2000
FTdx1200
FTdx3000
FTdx5000
FTdx9000
FTdx101
FTdx10

I am looking for owners of one of these rigs who are willing to run a short test to gather diagnostics to verify correct Hamlib behaviour. It will require downloading and installing a test version of WSJT-X and running a short test plan, then sending back a log file. It should only take about 30 minutes to complete. If the test passes that will be all, if there are failures there will be an opportunity to help with further tests to help with fixing any defects found.

The urgency is because I want to complete this exercise on as many of the above rig models before the imminent General Availability (GA) release of WSJT-X v2.3.0. Without this verification we will not be able to ship with the latest Hamlib library code, which means many recent defect repairs and support for new rigs will not be available.

I currently have access to to an FT-2000 so that one is already dealt with.

Thanks in advance.
