It's beginning to sound like there may be a shortcoming in the FT1000MP command
set that allows it to get into this stuck band reporting mode.
I have _never_ seen a stuck frequency problem with TRX-Manager or Log-EQF
operating with the FT1000MP. Does this mean that CT uses a slightly different
command sequence or timing to communicate with the FT1000MP.
Any experts out there? F6DEX? N3EQF? K1EA? Yaesu?...
Good luck & 73, Tony
