I installed 1.7k on 3 different PCs today. Zero issues. All of my/our
configuration is intact.
But, the way I did that is by NOT running the full installer; but instead
downloading and unzipping the files of the "Engine" file into the already
existing directories.
The Engine file does not contain a configuration file; so you cannot
accidentally overwrite your current configuration. The Engine file is
available on the same page the main installer can be downloaded (just a few
lines lower).
It's not much of an update, BTW. If you look at the list of new/fixed
features I bet most of that doesn't even apply to what 99.9 percent of us
have in our shacks.
And I don't see any reference to "beta version", regardless of QRZnow.com
says.
73,

Dick - I found the following with a search
http://qrznow.com/mmtty-ver-1-7kb-beta-is-now-available-for-download/
Also, the Hamsoft website shows that it is available for download
http://hamsoft.ca/
But if it is a Beta release I would suggest keep using the prior version
until this one get tried and tested. This is rule for anyone over age 70.
I would also suggest taking a digital photo of each and everyone of your
settings for the current version of MMTY just in case this one kills the old
one, does not work and zaps all of your setting.
