We seem to be hearing problems with a few people on both 2.0.1 and 2.1.0-rc7.
2.0.1 has been out for a long time and if this was common I'd think we would
have heard a lot more reports of the problem.Upgrading to 2.1.0-rc7 and back to
2.0.1 should (and I emphasize should) just revert completely back to 2.0.1
thought there is a bug with FT4 in that case.
The common thread probably is Windows updates....or time is off. Check
http://time.is to ensure you're time is reported as "Exact".
If you see waterfall activity but no decodes on of three things is likely
happening.
#1 Time is off#2 WAV files are not being recorded. Ensure Save/All is checked
and see if WAV files are showing up in the Save folder. One user found using
Remote Desktop that audio files weren't being saved. TeamViewer worked
though.#3 Audio corrupted. If WAV files are showing up but not decoding and
your time is correct then send in a few audio files so we can look at them.

Similar issue here on 2.0.1, win10, and flex6700 after a long operating
session or even a long monitoring session. I.e. I’ll leave the shack powered up
monitoring a band while I’m at work or elsewhere in the house.
When I come back sometimes the waterfall is showing activity, dT is good,
time.is is good, but no decodes.Other times it’s that clicking transit or tune
causes no generated audio to the DAX software which has a meter that shows me
no incoming audio is present from WSJT-X.
Typically corrected with a WSJT-X restart

Hi Mike,No transmitting at all. RF Chokes all over the place. No issues running
KW out on any band 6m through 80m. (if I have just rebooted the computer). Once
it has run for several hours. it will stop decoding, whether I have transmitted
or not, no matter qrp or qro. I monitor 24x7 , go days without tx'ing...it
still goes deaf.
IOW, it's not a USB RFI problem.
All power settings for USB have been set to never sleep.
I"m baffled, like I said, it acts like a memory leak and I don't think it's a
coincidence that it showed up the very first time after installing and running
RC7 64 bit.
The problem NEVER showed up b4 RC7 64 bit was installed. I didn't change a
thing in my setup or operating habits. Now I have to reboot every day or it
just stops decoding, even having uninstalled RC7 64 bit and returned to 2.01
Gen Release.
Audio level is perfect, waterfall shows signals...no decode. Reboot...decodes
resume. No other program shows any symptoms like this at all on the same
computer. WSJT-X is running on its own USB Sound Dongle for both RX and
TX....and has been for over a year. Any further ideas are most welcome
(TS-590sg, running from headphone jack for rx audio) Audio sounds perfect to
the ear. Levels are right...Most peculiar!

Failing audio or rig connections are most always due to RFI or USB ports going
to sleep.If RFI low power transmissions can be tested and if they work but high
power does not then it's RFI.The USB ports going to sleep can be
solved.https://www.windowscentral.com/how-prevent-windows-10-turning-usb-devices

I’ve seen this with other radios. Definitely not a flex only issue.

Peter,
Flex has its own set of unique problems and fixes. Suggest you post your
question on the Flex forum page. Good luck.

Greetings,
I have been using WSJT-X quite successfully for several years during
June VHF Contests. I experienced a failure of the WSJT program to accept
received audio input after several hours of proper operation during the
recent Field Day exercise.
I'll provide a brief outline and reply with more detail, should it be
needed.
My computer is a Dell Optiplex 780 running Win 7 Pro SP1, 64-bit. The
WSJT-X software version is 2.0.1 7ddcb7.
My receiver is a Flex 6500. It passes data to a Flex-supplied "DAX"
program that interfaces various applications that wish to receive the
audio stream. WSJT accepts the stream and displays results on the Wide
Graph and a small audio signal-strength window. Activity proceeded
normally for the first three hours of Field Day, until both the Wide
Graph and the audio signal-strength stopped showing any incoming audio.
I can't offer any help on what might have caused the problem. It was
abrupt and seemingly unrelated to any other system actions. I am unable
to reproduce the problem.
Several operators spent several hours speculating about what a solution
might be. Program restarts and computer re-boots (time-tested favorite
of generations) changed nothing. The only useful clue was that the DAX
audio output stream was present and could be re-directed to Fldigi, but
not to WSJT-X.
I was able to restore operation for a brief period by stopping WSJT,
renaming WSJT.ini and restarting WSJT. That fix lasted for a half hour.
Repeating the procedure provided operation for the rest of Field Day.
The two .ini files that were renamed are available for your inspection,
along with the one that continued to function.
Any suggestions you can offer to prevent a recurrence would be greatly
appreciated.
Regards,
Peter
