Tom: Yes, I am using the KX2 USB cable and it shows up on COM7 in my PC and yes, the 3.5mm plug is in the ACC jack on the radio.
I was re-reading the thread and noticed that earlier in the thread KN3ILZ outlined the steps to configure. Your response of only USB in the Serial Port drop-down indicates that WSJT-X doesn't see the KX2 USB cable. I had this happen to me until I realized that I still had the KX2 utility app running. It had the com port. Once I shut that down the com port was freed and COM7 showed up in the Serial Port drop-down in WSJT-X. Is the KX2 utility app still running on your PC? On the File\Settings\Radio tab I have selected the rig as Elecraft K3/KX3 the serial port as COM7 and my PTT Method is CAT, not VOX. As KN3ILZ said, click the Test CAT button and if it turns green it's configured properly. I have the jumpers and cables for the SignaLink USB to KX2 as well. I've just never used them. If this hasn't solved the problem I can try it out with my SignaLink USB when I get home. 73, Tim KA9EAK -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/Trying-to-get-on-FT-8-with-my-KX2-tp7632589p7632633.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
