That appears to work. (It's a little difficult keeping track when
trying with one computer and 2 radios.)
I like the new feature of 'rolling over' the station and seeing the
status and port. I don't remember seeing that before, and it is one
item I asked about previously (ability to see which port).
I think I saw an issue opening a com port. It was the second port in
the list; first was com 6, second is com 2. I'm hoping it's just me
today.
In the file page, where I connect, if I try to connect to a station
from the list using the wrong port (not current for that station) it
fails to connect.
I know I'm pushing the limits trying one computer and two radios, so I
hope some is just me. I don't have another station to test with at
the moment.
