I still have that problem with my Icom radios occaisionally.
It happens fairly frequently on the IC-761. I just acquired an
IC-765, but haven't tested the band change commands extensively
yet. TR seems to be a little more solid on the IC-765.
Alt-V and Alt-B often do not switch the radio. I always have
to watch to be sure. I often have to change bands with the radio,
or I issue another Alt V/B. Fortunately, the serial interface is
polled about once/second, and the software always switches to what
it is reading from the rig. Sometimes, there is a delay reading
from the radio though, enough to log a Q on the wrong band, which
I've done more than once.
