Re: [wsjt-devel] WSJT-x Icom CI-V Issue?

2021-04-28 Thread Bill Somerville

John,

the hamlib_settings.json file works fine for me when I try it. I have 
attached a copy as I suspect you have mistyped the contents, put the 
file in the wrong location, or named it incorrectly.


With respect to using the separated CI-V capability of your rig, I 
cannot test that here as I do not have on of the modern Icoms that have 
that capability, but I have given you the instructions to enable it. You 
will probably have to enable CI-V Transceive Mode on your rig as well so 
that it sends unsolicited CAT information for frequency and mode changes 
on the CI-V bus(es), this will allow you controller to track the rig. 
Recent versions of WSJT-X are built with a version of Hamlib that should 
be reasonably tolerant of CI-V Tranceive Mode broadcasts from your rig 
although you may get CAT errors if you tune the rig directly while using 
WSJT-X.

Changing the rig definition in WSJT-x 2.3.1 to IC-7000 with or without 
the json file allows me to get a “Green” on CAT and a “Red” on PTT, 
BUT ... when either the Test PTT button is (soft) pushed or “Tune” on

reverts to USB, the radio goes into transmit mode and no tones are 
transmitted.


As it relates to separate CI-V addresses for the 7300, I’ve not yet 
found a way to set CI-V Output (for ANT) to 70h and leave the main USB 
address at 94h. I’ve reached out into the IC-7300 community for help 
with this.


Please let me know if there is a better forum for discussing (and

Good afternoon. I am experiencing a problem with what I believe
might be an issue with WSJT CI-V addressing.

My environment is WSJT-x version 2.3.1, primarily running FT-8 and
FT-4. The PC is an I-7 desktop or an I-7 laptop using Windows 10
Pro version 20H2. The radio is an IC-7300 with version 1.40 firmware.

The problem with CI-V addressing occurs while operating in my RV.
In this environment, I am using a Tarheel antenna and a
“TennaTronix” Tenna Tuner-2 antenna tuner. Because the Tenna
Tuner-2 has a hard-coded CI-V address of 70h, I have to change the
CI-V address of the 7300 to 70h from 94h and set the configuration
of WSJT-x to emulate an IC-7000 Icom radio.

When I set WSJT to IC-7000 and change the IC-7300 CI-V address to
70h, I get a good CAT and PTT indications in the Settings screens,
but audio tones are not sent to the 7300 when I push the “Tune”
soft button on the FT8 screen. Also, the IC-7300’s USB-D setting
immediately resets to USB. I experience this same problem on the
FT4 mode screen.

I have successfully defined the environment as an IC-7200 (76h)
and an IC-7100 (88h) and everything appears to work properly.
 Defining the environment as an IC-7300 (94h) also works properly.

I appreciate any help you might be able to give me with this problem.

Hi John,

thanks for joining the list. You can override the default CI-V address 
used by WSJT-X/Hamlib by creating a file in the WSJT-X log files 
directory called hamlib_settings.json with the following contents:


{
     "config": {
     "civaddr": "0x70"
     }
}

That will allow you to use the regular IC-7300 rig setting in WSJT-X 
with your IC-730 switched to CI-V address 70h.


Having said that, I thought the IC-7300 was capable of using a 
different CI-V address on the REMOTE port from the one used on the USB 
virtual serial port for CAT control. You will need to unlink the 
REMOTE port from the USB port in the IC-7300 menu, then set the Ci-V 
Output (for ANT) menu setting to 70h while leaving the main USB 
virtual port using the default of 94h.

Re: [wsjt-devel] WSJT-x Icom CI-V Issue?

2021-04-26 Thread Frode Igland
John,
As the change of mode happens on tune or transmit, have you checked for
RFI? I am not familiar with the IC-7300 settings, but  in a couple of
IC-7600 I have seen RFI change the of mode (e.g. from USB-D1 or USB to LSB)
when transmitting. Change of TX filter width has also happened
simultaneously with the mode changes, from the widest filter (3000 Hz) to
the narrowest (500 Hz). Reducing the TX power and adding ferrites took care
of it. Just a thought for your consideration.

The CI-V address difference between the Tarheel andthe IC-7300 is beyond
me, but in the IC-7600 "CI-V Transceive" control should be set to OFF, to
avoid CI-V and WSJT-X CAT control to fight for controlling the rig. I
assume it is the same for IC-7300.

I’m curious - why are you using an antenna tuner with a Tarheel?  The antenna 
should be tunable to the exact frequency you are operating and not need a 
tuner.  To slide off to a different frequency and leave the antenna mis-tuned 
and make up for it with a tuner could lead to damage to the antenna and/or the

"civaddr": "0x70"
}
}

That will allow you to use the regular IC-7300 rig setting in WSJT-X 
with your IC-730 switched to CI-V address 70h.


Having said that, I thought the IC-7300 was capable of using a different 
CI-V address on the REMOTE port from the one used on the USB virtual 
serial port for CAT control. You will need to unlink the REMOTE port 
from the USB port in the IC-7300 menu, then set the Ci-V Output (for 
ANT) menu setting to 70h while leaving the main USB virtual port using 
the default of 94h.

[wsjt-devel] WSJT-x Icom CI-V Issue?

2021-04-25 Thread John Deegan
Good afternoon. I am experiencing a problem with what I believe might be an
issue with WSJT CI-V addressing.  

 

My environment is WSJT-x version 2.3.1, primarily running FT-8 and FT-4. The
PC is an I-7 desktop or an I-7 laptop using Windows 10 Pro version 20H2. The
radio is an IC-7300 with version 1.40 firmware.

 

The problem with CI-V addressing occurs while operating in my RV. In this
environment, I am using a Tarheel antenna and a "TennaTronix" Tenna Tuner-2
antenna tuner. Because the Tenna Tuner-2 has a hard-coded CI-V address of
70h, I have to change the CI-V address of the 7300 to 70h from 94h and set
the configuration of WSJT-x to emulate an IC-7000 Icom radio.

 

When I set WSJT to IC-7000 and change the IC-7300 CI-V address to 70h, I get
a good CAT and PTT indications in the Settings screens, but audio tones are
not sent to the 7300 when I push the "Tune" soft button on the FT8 screen.
Also, the IC-7300's USB-D setting immediately resets to USB. I experience
this same problem on the FT4 mode screen.

 

I have successfully defined the environment as an IC-7200 (76h) and an
IC-7100 (88h) and everything appears to work properly.  Defining the
environment as an IC-7300 (94h) also works properly. 

 

I appreciate any help you might be able to give me with this problem. 

 

Best regards de K9XT.
