I believe that they are correct, but I am going to have another look at my radio. I get an issue popping up when I start the program. It is telling me that my computer is not connected to the radio.

Go to Task Manager and check the use of your processor. I had the same problem with an older laptop (connected to an ICOM 7300 via USAB) that was slow and when receiving RADE the cpu was above 90 percent all the time. Used a newer laptop with a faster cpu and all works well now.
