Is there a significant change in Rigcat between fldigi 3.12.4 and 
3.13AE?  I'm seeing some differences in behavior when trying to control my 
IC-7000.

    All works pretty well with 3.12.4 under Ubuntu 9.04 using a Rigblaster 
plug&play for an interface connected to a USB port.  Under 3.13AE, I am 
unable to unkey the transmitter on HF once I've started transmitting.  To 
quit transmitting, I must manually hit the on/off switch on the IC-7000 
for a second, and the transmitter will unlock.

    This is repeatable.  I switch between 3.12.4 and 3.13AE and this always 
happens.  I've also tried changing the various settings like the write 
delay and switching between CAT control and toggling RTS for PTT.  Both 
lock up the transmitter under 3.13AE, but both work fine under 3.12.4.

    My first thought was rf in my shack.  But then why would 3.12.4 work 
and 3.13AE lock up?
