I have Winlink Express running quite happily on a laptop, talking to a K3S thru the K3S’s USB cable. I configured Winlink Express on an older desktop, and it did not play with the same K3S - although the Winlink Express can (e.g., using VARA) transmit a signal; it “hears” nothing. The USB Codec Microphone, which is how the K3S’s audio shows up on the PC, has sound - I can “listen” to it using the Windows ability to listen to a sound input device. But, none of the Winlink Express modems running on the desktop can hear any audio.
Oddly, FLDIGI works just fine on the laptop and the desktop. Finally, after some more poking around, I got it to work. The magic was to change the “Allow apps to access your microphone” setting in the Sound settings page to On. This setting appears in the “Microphone privacy settings” and I completely ignored it for more than a couple days! Go to Settings/Sound. Click on “Microphone privacy settings”. Make sure “Allow apps to access your microphone” is “On”. Also, make sure the “Allow desktop apps to access the microphone” setting further down this page is “On”. This is what was preventing my Winlink Express app from working. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
