Description
Report preparation
- I used the AI-assisted bug report tool (Help → Support → File an Issue)
- I have attached a support bundle or log file
What happened?
I don't see any difference between "pan follows VFO" enable or disable.
I only see this function working when selecting "Center Lock slice A"
What did you expect?
From my point of view, "pan follows VFO" should do the same as "Center Lock Slice x" but with the option to leave it enabled for every slice (always).
Steps to reproduce
- Select View - Pan follows VFO
- Panadapter is not centering with the actual Slice
- Disable View - Pan follows VFO
- No difference in the waterfall nor IQ Center frequency
AetherSDR version
26.9.2

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with View - Pan follows VFO on a Flex 6600 running AetherSDR 26.9.2, comparing it with Center Lock Slice A. Check the panadapter, waterfall, and IQ center frequency while toggling the option. Done means Pan follows VFO visibly centers on the active slice and differs correctly when disabled.
