This continues to be a problem at my station and it has the potential to damage
my equipment as the spurious TX starts before my SteppIR has changed to the new
band.
Shouldn't WSJT-X clear out all generated messages on band change or, at a
minimum, flag that F/H QSO attempt has ended.
73,
Several times I have completed an FT8 F/H QSO on one band then changed to
another band with Hound mode still active. "Enable TX" is not active and no
intended transmissions have yet been made on the newly selected band. However,
WSJT-X starts a new transmission to the fox that had been worked
"I have noticed the same thing at times while running as Hound in F/H where
the report from the Fox will appear in the Band Activity column but not in
the Rx Frequency column. I am presently running the "WSJT-X V2.7.1 devel

I think I have seen this once with ver
I’d like to
follow up to understand this situation better.

It turns out that this problem is very easy to reproduce. First some
background on my configuration.
The TS-590S has both a USB port and a traditional RS-232 COM port. The USB
port connects to an internal USB hub which, in turn, connects to a USB UART for
CAT and a PCM2903B USB Audio CODEC.
I have it working again.
I had disconnected all cables from the laptop to access the battery. When I put
it all back together I had swapped the cables for the TS-590S USB port and a 10
port USB hub. I only realized this error when WSJT-X did not see my TS-590S
USB audio CODEC.
When I put the
I'm using WSJT-X ver 2.6.1 on a Win 8.1 laptop. I have been using OmniRig as
my radio interface for many months and the only issue has been that first start
after a new installation WSJT-X will fail to connect to OmniRig. It always
connected ok for second and subsequent starts.
Now I cannot
After a review of ALL.TXT I no longer think this was related to prior use of
F/H mode. I had set TX5 to a "CQ DX message" and that was auto sequenced after
RR73 was received.
I'll need to be careful to ensure TX5 is set correctly when in QSO.

WSJT-X ver 2.6.1, Win 8.1.
I have observed several times that I could not complete a QSO by sending 73
after I had received an RR73. This is expected operation with F/H active but
not when F/H is not active. I suspect that something is latched in software if
F/H mode has been used but is
I worked 3Y0J 17 m FT8 February 11 at 1603 UTC. At that time they were
transmitting "even" and had a clock error of 0.4 seconds. F/H hound mode
worked as expected and moved me from 2579 to 256.
I was very surprised to hear the reports of a large clock error causing their
TX on the wrong

I made a copy of the ini file for the condition that connects to Omni-Rig and a
separate ini file copy for the configuration that does not connect to Omni-Rig.
I compared the files using WinMerge. I see no obvious difference that would
explain why one works with Omni-Rig and the other does

fine in ver 2.3.0. It not only came up with a zero and red frequency box but
it also failed to connect to Omni-Rig.

The -rc5 release notes say:

- Click the "H" button again. Then you will stay on the QRG.
