Hello Seth, minor issue; the logbook is showing the usb hub (CP2105....) between my macbook and the FTDX10 and not the Rig type. Is this an error in my settings or a Nexus issue?

Setup (from report)

• MacBook → USB hub / CP2105 interface → FTDX-10
• Product baseline: 1.14.0 (no matching note in #release-notes for this)

What happens

Logbook RIG column shows the Silicon Labs USB-UART / hub string (CP2105 Dual…) for contacts, not the configured radio type (FTDX-10).

Screenshot from Discord:

Expected

RIG should show the selected radio / MY_RIG type (e.g. FTDX-10), not the intermediate USB serial device name.

Notes

• Operator asks whether this is a settings mistake or a Nexus bug — triage may need to confirm how RIG is populated on Mac + external CP2105.
• No existing open issue matched CP2105 / USB-hub-as-RIG.
