DME Hold Not Functional
-
There is no reason this should have stopped working in the Dukes, but I can't swear that I tested it recently. It's more likely that the process of tuning the new station (it's not actually "held" like it is in a real aircraft, but instead retuned. Just a MSFS limitation.) can take a few seconds. Sometimes DME information takes another few seconds to acquire, so you might get "999.9NM" for a few seconds before getting good information. This is just a limitation of the MSFS radio navigation simulation. I actually had to overcome this to couple the KNS-81 to the autopilot, because the MSFS DME update speed was so slow that it was unusable to an autopilot. I'll take a look at this later just to make sure something didn't get broken before release.

This was completely my fault. So sorry. I changed some things with the tablet system that causes this mistake, believe it or not. I'm just ashamed that I didn't catch it.
Unfortunately, there are a whole bunch of files that need to change to fix this, so I can't offer my usual simple DIY fix for those who don't want to wait for the next update. I hope that will be acceptable, and you can just avoid approaches that require DME holding until then.
Thank you so much for pointing this out to me!
