Do you also have the frequency offset only with protocol 2?

Yes, but I had never given it any importance. I just installed the new fw 2.2.2. vers.A and tried to keep it in TX for a long time, at the moment it seems to work!!!
I'm waiting to claim victory, I want to test it well and call CQ for at least an hour/two, but something has definitely improved. I always thought this couldn't depend on the temperature and I wasn't wrong.

I'm officially claiming victory:). Since I updated to the new firmware to fix the RF on the RX port and also went to CM ASIO Protocol 2 has worked perfectly for two months. Maybe that little bit of RF from the RX port was what was messing with the firmware timings. Vin KD1GA

Did you terminate the open ports as well?

Yes, port shunting was one of the first things I did when i first suspected RF and that didn't solve the issues. Thanks for your suggestion a while back. I apologize for not confirming it was already done back months ago when you originally suggested it.

Yes my friend told me as well as another gentleman one night I sounded like Darth Vader. Then another person came on frequency and told me I was bothering him a bit above. I was leaking into 10mhz port, of course during high power tx .
