[WriteLog] Band Change Question!

Wed Sep 16 10:49:26 EDT 2015

This has been mentioned several times over the years and affects the 
FT2K, 5K, 9K etc. I recall the problem is that Writelog doesnt issue the 
'BS' CAT command when Writelog QSYs the radio. The correct sequence of 
CAT commands sent to the radios should be....
BSxx - changes radio to the desired band (band stack registers change 
ANT, IPO etc)
MDxx - changes mode on radio
FAxxxxxxxx - changes frequency on radio
Writelog only sends FA and MD so when QSYing your IPO, ANT, ATT settings 
etc will not change.
