Interesting. I was helping a friend troubleshoot an issue with FL-Digi and his Digikeyer. It had previously worked OK, them stopped PTT and no waterfall display of anything. We used Skype to talk while we tried to solve the problem. The ODD thing is that while talking him through things, my FL-Digi with Microkeyer began to exhibit the exact problems. No PTT, no signals in the waterfall despite an active number of PSK signals on the band.
FL-DIGi was displaying an audio ports error on the very bottom of the screen. I can't remember what it said exactly, something about multiple ports, I think. I closed FL-Digi and booted up Multipsk, signals were in the waterfall. So I went back in to FL-Digi, went to CONFIGURE , then WATERFALL, and then AUDIO. I checked the capture and playback selection to make sure I had the correct audio source. I had three audio sources that were possible, internal sound card, external sound card, and USB camera with mic that I use for Skype. Even though I had the correct one selected, I clicked on it anyway. Poof ! Signals in the waterfall all of a sudden, and PTT command was working. My friend did the same, and all was well at his end. Is this some sought of Skype related quirk, Microham Device Writer quirk? Anyone replicate this ? What does the audio ports error in FL-digi signify ? Andy K3UK
