The two tabs share a single connection to the radio, of course, so they kinda fight for access while they're loading. If you are only interested in the A side (for example), you can just hit Esc (or Radio->Stop) on the B side and the A one will finish more quickly. You can always stop a big queued read by pressing Esc on the live radios.
The idea is that it attempts to load the whole radio in the background while you're doing other things. You can always make changes to the memories on the screen or load another range while it's filling in the background. Anything done at the UI takes precedence over the background loading.
no problem, just wasn't sure if it was expected behavior.
I did have to add in KeySpan support again before it could bring up the dialog box to set the com port.
Hmm, that fall out somehow? Or did we ever even have it in CHIRP? I know it was in the D-RATS code…
We'd discussed you adding it just before Dayton last year, but things were hectic and I'm not sure you ever did. I didn't download a new version since that one, so I don't know. I can put in a feature request so it's on the list, it's definitely a 20 second mod.
