That sounds like a bug.  I think it works OK if you use CapsLock binds to
secondary radio.  But see Task
#264<http://flyspray.win-test.com/index.php?do=details&id=264>for a
related issue even when using that method.  In sum, SO2R on SSB is
really broken right now as far as automated switching via LPT or MK2R
protocol is concerned.  You have to use the star key [ * ] to swap radios
every time.

In Win-Test, do File | Explore | /databases directory to see exactly which
folder Win-Test is using for database files.  Not that it is really easy to
have  misleading file names displayed by Windows Explorer, because it always
hides file extensions by default.  If you may see master.scp in Explorer,
but the real file name may actually be master.scp.scp, and Win-Test will
ignore it.

This section<http://docs.win-test.com/wiki/Check_Partial_and_Np1_Files#Location>of
the Wiki lists step-by-step instructions explaining how to properly
display full file names in Windows.  It also explains the search order.
When all else fails, use the file name DEFAULT.SCP instead of MASTER.SCP.
