Yes CAT can be somewhat confusing IF........you are running multiple
applications at the same time. Otherwise, I use CAT for: WSJT-X,
FLDIGI, HRD/DM780, MMTTY and have zero issues with any of the
applications or levels or commands. And all were easy to configure and
are reliable. When I load and open the application, the radio follows
just as one would expect. Now that I find simple.

I have a K3s and have never used CAT for PTT fuctions. I found it to
hard to set up and think about. I do use VOX for keying the
transmitter. I find that works very well and is mindlessly simple to
set up. The only thing you need to know is to remember to turn the VOX
function on and make sure you have enough audio going in to satisfy
the 4 steady bars with a 5th flickering on the ALC indicator. This
approach allow me to switch to differing digital software with little
need to do further set ups. I suggest that those who are having
problems setting up CAT for their radios give this a try and see how
well it works. And BTW: I do use FT8 fairly regularly as well as RTTY
and PSK31.
