(both setups using HRD (up to date) for CAT control)
This combination of rig and interface requires a specific setup. The
FT-817/857/897(D) series of rigs do not accept CAT commands while
transmitting. You must *not* check the settings option
"Settings->General->Allow Tx frequency changes while transmitting" and
you must set the SignaLink delay knob to minimum. You should set the
WSJT-X PTT configuration "Settings->Radio->PTT Method" to "VOX" although
some have found it necessary to use the CAT PTT Method to avoid any CAT
commands while the rig is in Tx mode.
For all:
1.9.1 works great
2.0 RC3 works great
2.0 RC4 good waterfall (therefore good audio present) - NO decode.
uninstalling/reinstalling forward and back through versions gives the
same result.
i have concluded:
1 I must be holding my mouth wrong - OR
2 I have missed a new setting.
3 When I have been looking/testing RC4, no RC4 (77 bit)
transmissions. Not sure here as I have been especially been looking
top band.
2 probably!!
Almost certainly 3, there has been a relatively low usage to 77-bit FT8
on the normal HF FT8 sub-bands. It seems that most users of RC4 have
reverted to v1.9.1 so the volume of 77-bit traffic is low except for a
couple of days after a beta release. It would be good if users of RC5
could stick with it and try to drive up the level of activity so that
issues can be discovered before the final GA release.
