[WT-support] Band Data from U2R ACC ports

[HA3LN]

Hi Bob, 

Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation. 

The user was the issue... ;-)

I assumed the band data is available in classic SO2R mode as well.
As Larry suggested after I changed to protocol controlled started 
as it should.

Thanks again for your help as well.

73!
