Hi Andy, thanks for the link, will have a look there. Since my original post I have dug deeper and widened my field of testing. I can see on 'other' derivatives of WSJT-X that the rig type is stored as "Q65-eme\Configuration\Rig=FLRig FLRig" and not the mangled: Rig="FLRig " I see in the current releases of WSJT-X and the Improved version.
It would seem an error has crept into the code base at some point that mangles the storage of this parameter when selecting FLRig in the Configuration menu.
