Re: [wsjt-devel] WSJT-X 2.5.0 GA Release
Thanks for the great work. Compiled fine from source on Debian 11 Linux, using my usual methodology. I noted that the workable frequencies table got larger, but deleted the ones my rig is incapable of handling to avoid accidentally switching to one. Good to see there's a simple way to restore to defaults (if I get another rig). I didn't do any of the RC testing this go around, too busy with other things in life. But will be using 2.5.0 now, looks great! 73, KD0KZE / Paul On 9/27/2021 11:14 AM, Joe Taylor via wsjt-devel wrote: We are pleased to announce the General Availability (GA) release of WSJT-X version 2.5.0.

Bill, I confess that I have not checked this parameter so far, sad to admit it but this demonstrate my little effort to document myself better about this specific configurations. Now I entered into YAESU FT-100 Menu and the parameters related to DIG mode are as following: 34 - AFSK Mode = PCt-U 35 - RTTY SHIFT = 170 (I guess this not important in this case) 36 - RTTY DISPLAY = nor 37 - PACKET RATE = 1200 38 -*PKT DISPLAY = 2125 (!!!)* 39 - PACKET TONE = 2125 Is that just MENU 38 to be set Bill?

These Kenwoods, ts590, ts890 have been working like charm. And my TS890 works OK with 2.5.0. Audio (afsk) is put into radio USB-A --- USB-B cable, no interfaces between computer/radio. Again, if chosen Hamlib Net Rigctl, no TX audio out, PTT fires radio TX on. RX works perfect. If chosen KENWOOD TS590SG as RADIO both TX and RX works OK. This is the problem, I want to use HAMLIB NET RIGCTL, because want to connect CQRLOG also. AN AGAIN, THIS HAVE BEEN working before.. Only thing, what also made me thinking, if SELINUX does not let TX-audio out. Anyway, something dumps audio..

You are right, in fact yesterday I was playing around the modes and I verified that if I select digital and set accordingly my FT-100 menu to use "PCT_USB", then my environment works: AFSK reach the rear data port and my FT8 signal is being transmitted. However I guess DIG mode is not ideal for my setup because it looks like nobody is answering to my CQ's (tested some minutes on 40 meters band). I will try again today the DIG mode on the higher frequencies, where is more easy to get a station reply.

Verify that you have selected the right source, sink and that no one of them is muted. Verify that pavucontrol shows a signal on the selected items. In WSJT-X, verify that you have selected the appropriate "sound card".
