I can appreciate your frustration, but please understand, that all of 
the problems that we have seen with Keyspan devices have been fixed 
without ANY change to MacLoggerDX.

In Peter Meier's case just using a different adapter solved the problem.

I would be overjoyed if it were a bug in MacLoggerDX, because then it 
would be fixed.

We are using the dogparklist to try and help with these problems since 
Keyspan has shown no interest in doing so.
