@Richard (G4DYA)...I also initially selected the Alsa settings in the WSJT-X drop-downs. I found that this sound card setting had quirks. The setting worked, but would always reset the mic setting. I experimented, because I didn't like having to set the mic setting in the OS sound settings every time I used WSJT-X. I found a value in the soundcards list called Sysdefault for the USB sound card I had connected to the RPi. This one worked the way I expected...no more resetting the mic volume to max, but instead respecting the setting that was there. Now I can move among different digital programs (FLdigi, WSJT-X, etc.) without having to change the mic setting in the Linux's sound settings.
I am running the latest version of Raspbian on an RPI3. regards, Brian VE3IBW On Tue, Jul 4, 2017 at 10:54 AM, Richard Lamont <[email protected]> wrote: > On 03/07/17 21:37, Elmore's wrote: > > Has anyone figured out how to control a K2 from RPi running WSJT-X (or > FLDIGI,etc.)? > > > > Also, has anyone been able to run a digital program using a USB > soundcard?
