Hiya, all.
I've got a couple of Icom F-4001 handhelds. They're great performers, and with only two option buttons, they're fairly idiot-proof. I've been programming them differently every so often to take advantage of different ham & GMRS repeaters as I travel. So far, so good.
Recently, however, when I load up my official com CPS, I get no channel display. This represents a change from what had been the program playing merrily along; it used to run normally when it was newly installed, and for a couple of years after. All the rest of the menu items display, along with the typical column markers. i can interact normally with the other functions. This occurs whether I download what is currently in the radios, or saved profiles, or try to build a whole new "codeplug.' I actually have two separate instances of the CPS installed. Both are v1.1, and are actually on separate partitions on my laptop's HDD. All my other CPS programs are running fine.
Both of the radios perform like before. I have not yet tried installing a third instance of the program on my laptop, a Lenovo LT 1505, running Windoze 11. Everything else on it runs fine.
Any (printable) ideas to solve my quandary? This just seems "goofy" if I may be allowed to use the technical term here....
