I could hear the 40m frequency change 7005 -> 7030 ->7041.
Adjusting the Audio Gain I can get some intelligible text, I just heard 
the CW call and saw WA1AW/8 on screen on 7005, so it's looking healthier.

When I fired up it was on 20m and Filters switched to 40m when I set 40m.

When I change to another freq on the same band, it goes quiet on Hermes 
speaker and I have to change the Audio Gain setting, e.g it was on 95% 
OK, changed frequency and it went quiet until I set the Audio Gain to 85%.

BTW, I got caught by one problem this evening - with Hermes and with 
BeMicro SDK emulating Hermes-Lite (No AD9866), it was selecting the 
BeMicro instead.

I only noticed it when I saw no activity on Hermes, but the BeMicro 
Ethernet was flashing away merrily.
With KissKonsole Configure I have to select the Hermes IP address.
73 ... Sid.
