so i updated both receivers to 2.22.1 and tested them a bit in my back yard with no resulting issues. then i had to do a all day job that is just PPK. all day away from the base, no radio connection to tell if it was on or not, kind of a nail biter.
i left the base logging a raw file and worked about a mile down in a heavy wooded canyon. i was very worried i would come back to a sleeping base station but no it stayed up all day long. so i am going to call this issue fixed. thanks for the fast turn around on fixing this.
