The microham router is setup correctly for the FT-990 and displays 
frequency and mode correctly as long as WT is not running. But I can 
recheck when back from contest.

QSL I will recheck that also but even if the bandplan setting in the 
router is "wrong", WT should read the correct frequency and mode from 
the radio.

QSL, but also here "wrong" settings only affect the bandmap etc but 
should not have any influence on what WT is reading back from the 
radio.

Thanks for the offer, I may come back on it.
