Same issue here.  Happened twice during the contest.  No known reason for occurrence as I had not touched the radio - except it went from TX to RX on a frequency a short way away.  FSK D mode.

I can confirm - I observed the same thing while setting up the radio for
the contest on Friday and making a test QSO using the radio's memory
buttons. I had the LP-PAN and PowerSDR running, but no radio control
software. I called someone using the memory buttons by pressing M1
twice, and found the receiver was suddenly listening somewhere else. I
was able to recover quickly enough to complete the QSO. I chalked the
whole thing up to having unwittingly bumped a button or knob somewhere,
but in hindsight I can see that in as many details as I can remember,
which is nowhere near the level of detail in John's description, it did
appear to be exactly the same as John is reporting.
