Hi,

I will need more information how it occurs.

1) Based on COM3 port, I guess, it is the Window version. Did you install it from EXE-installer or compile it? 2) Is the Mode switch empty if you define a rig first time? 2.1 ) If you restart QLog. Do you see any mode in the switch? 3) Is it empty only if you select the Rig profile " ft857d"? 4) Do you see any mode if rig is disconnected (combo is disabled but the first mode should be visible). 5) Please, could you send me a screenshot of Help->About dialog?

Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce it. If I test it then I always see the first mode (AM) in the Mode Switch - also for FT857d Therefore, please, try to describe the situation, what you did and what you tried and what you see as much as possible. Every little detail is important.

  1. Yes, it's Windows 10, I used the EXE-installer
  2. Yes, the switch is empty if I define a rig for the first time. 2.1 If I restart Qlog nothing changes - the mode switch is empty.
  3. If I delete all rig profiles, restart Qlog and create a new one, for example, for icom-7300, then the switch is still empty.
  4. If the rig is disconnected (combo is disabled) - the switch is empty.

it is incomprehensible. I can't replicate this situation at all.

Can you please try another test. Run QLog with an input parameter -n test (something like this: qlog.exe -n test) This will cause qlog to start, but with a completely new database. Don't worry, you won't lose the original data, because if you run QLog again without a parameter, Qlog will return to the original database.

Once you have QLog running, fill in only the station profile in the initial settings and click OK. In this case, do you see "AM" in Rig Mode or not?

Rig mode - empty. Below is a link to the video from the screen. https://drive.google.com/file/d/10yiz_6FbL1VkwlIgOK9jwgrVfSqTb6et/view?usp=sharing

Many thanks. The issue is confirmed. I can simulate it but I have to use Windows which is installed in Virtual Machine. That's very interesting.

I found the issue. The issue was that Windows package contained Hamlib 4.4 but Qlog was compiled against Hamlib 4.3.2 - issue in my build process.

You can find the updated EXE Package in the Release section. It should show the Modes correctly now.
