Good morning all.

I just did the upgrade to v4.2.5 and seem to be noticing a few new
behaviors.  First, I kept hearing a clicking sound??  It appears to have
been caused by the persistent serial port trying to find my radio through
the USB port.  As soon as I entered ICOM IC-756proII, usbserial port driver
info (which it found its self), and the baud rate 19200, the clicking went
away and the radio was displayed in MacLoggerDX.  I had to de-select DTR and
RTS to take it out of transmit - but from there it was fine.

The serial port seems more aggressive and persistent at trying to find the
radio connection.

One question, it seems the call signs are no longer displayed on the map.
How do I turn that back on?

Also, it use to be that when I clicked on an entry in the log, the map
display would switch and display the station location.  Now the map seems to
be off.  Hawaii displays in China???

My son just upgraded to General Class - so I bought him MacLoggerDX for his
Mac notebook computer.
