Skip, thanks again.
I am familar with Microham and its device router, my friend has that
installed and working correctly. The Icom and the digikeyer can
communicate without problems. It is when we try to set up FLDIGI
that the problems begin. Using hamlib we can get frequency read out

Read the manual carefully. You must specailly configure Microham to work
with each radio and each application.

Andy,
The Microham manual says you must disable autobaud in any ICOM used with the
router. Make sure it is disabled and either 9600 baud or 19200 baud is
selected in the ICOM.
You must get frequency control working before you can use PTT by CAT.

Andy, here you say he has frequency display, but now you say he does not.
According to the manual, he has to CREATE virtual ports. I guess you do this
and then configure fldigi to use the port of your choice, but it must not be
a port already in use.
When the ports are created, I think fldigi w
He has rig control with the Microham, just not with FL-DIGI

OK, I see he has no rig control. That is why he has no PTT. Must be a bad
setting in the Microham keyer. Once he gets rig control, he will have PTT by
CAT command, I think.
I use the IC-746pro also, but with the Radio Shack scanner USB programmin
Is "Use PTT via Cat Command" black (i.e. checked)?
DTR and RTS are not needed when using CAT for PTT.
Is he getting a frequency readout of the IC-746pro on fldigi?

Still no go. I am talking him throught this via Skype, so it is not
easy.
He placed the Icom 746 Pro xml file in the FLDIGI.FILES/RIGS path,
He selected RIGCAT in FLDIGI CONFIGURE area and selected USE
RIGCAT. He saved and re-booted. When rebooted, FLDIGI says no

There was a (oops) in some of the rig xml files on the fldigi website
at the time of the 3.10 release. It was corrected quickly but you may
have a rig.xml that was missing the tags. I have been
using Fldigi with FT857D & 897D both without a problem. Try the
FT857D.xml from Dave's website.

Yes, get the 746Pro file from here: http://www.w1hkj.com/xmlarchives.html
Put the file in the Rigs folder in fldigi.files.
Set the baud rate, comport, and check PTT via Cat Command.

Grab the xml file that your radio requires, throw it into the rig file in
FLDIGI, load rig required, shut down program, reboot program and should work
for you ok..
Mine is working great now.

When using RIGCAT with an Icom 746P, should we be using a xml for for
that rig ?

Thanks Skip, will try that.
Since the Microham device router test button works, the Digikeyer is
working correctly. We just need to get FL-DIGI set correctly.

Andy, try Rig Cat instead of Ham Lib. That should trigger the PTT with a CAT
command. There seem to be quite a few reported problems trying to use
Microham Digikeyer, but I do not have one, so it is hard to help understand
what is wrong.

I am trying to help a friend set-up FLDIGI on his new laptop using his

That's not me !
I wanted to stress the point that we have two seemingly different needs:
one for keyboarding, which is OK with a smaller character set, and a
full 8 bit word mode for data, that could be used instead of the old
packet modems. As usual, each one might carry a different name or

Hi friends,
I am running both my FT857 and FT897D on a CAT rate of 38.400 with
the FT857.xml file support, having no problems at all with this set-
up. O/S W-XP SP3 on AMD 2 GHz single core.
The same applies to MixW 2.18r and all other programs used for
digimodes.

Hi Graham.
I am certainly not surprised and it confirms my Gaussian noise tests.
Olivia trades sensitivity for automatic tuning. M
Mike,
Have you switched to digital mode on the 746Pro? You need to hold in the SSB
button for two seconds until a "D" appears on the display. This activates
the data jack and disables the microphone.

I recently purchased a Signalink USB interface which works fine all
but, no audio to the rig. This was also a problem with my last
interface that didn't use a USB port bit rather the computer sound
card. The rig is 746 pro connected via the data jack. Any one else
have any ideas before I ha
Try first CAT rate 4800bps. I remember, that 817 or 857D work better
with lower rate (RigCAT) and for me this is default for both rig.
My Fldigi settings: Retry interval 30ms, Commands interval 70ms
FT857D with DigiKeyer and FT-817 with SignaLink-1+
