Changing PC's and PowerSpec

VUCC Progress Report oddities
I say oddities and not errors since I have only recently been paying attention to my VUCC. I have been playing with FT8 on 6 meters and working lots of grids. I quickly got my prior count of 72 grids

Reports output folder
Is there a way to select a different folder for DXLabs reports? Just curious, might try pointing it to my OneDrive so I can review them on another PC. Not a major issue... 73 de Chuck, WS1L

That did it. The empty port choice was at the bottom of the list and I missed it at first. The QTH ID was a case of a stray dash in the model description. Once that was removed all seems to be working
