Hi
today I have reinstalled 2.3.0rc1 64 bit on ubuntu 20.04 from the deb
package with no problem. I have also compiled from source on my RPi
Buster successfully.
The first bug I have confirmed exists I have replicated on ubuntu
20.04. The use case is:
- start wsjtx
- change mode from an 'old' mode to FST4 or FST4W
- waterfall stops updating and wsjtx has to be killed from the command
line.
If the mode is already FST4 or FST4W then you can change to an 'old'
mode ok.
I cannot readily reproduce this issue, can you give a more specific
recipe for reproduction please?
The second bug I have confirmed exists on the RPi. Use case:
- start wsjtx from command line like "wsjtx --rig-name=FST4W"
- enter Settings
- set radio to FT-817 on /dev/ttyUSB0
- press 'Test CAT'
- output in terminal is:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ wsjtx --rig-name=FST4W
libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate

The Test PTT button does not activate. When starting wsjtx from the
menu option the 'Test CAT' button works as expected (although it
doesn't turn green but does activate the Test PTT button).
The Hamlib messages to the console can be ignored, it is a Hamlib debug
message that has an error severity but it is not an error. If the "Test
CAT" button does not turn to green then it should turn red and an error
message bow will eventually appear, it may take a while due to retries.
On ubuntu 20.04 with my IC-7300 I get the following output:
simon@simon-desktop:~$ wsjtx --rig-name=FST4W
Hamlib: rig_get_vfo: no get_vfo
Hamlib: rig_get_vfo: no get_vfo
Hamlib: rig_get_vfo: no get_vfo
Hamlib: rig_get_vfo: no get_vfo
Hamlib: rig_get_vfo: no get_vfo
Hamlib: rig_get_vfo: no get_vfo
However, the Test CAT button does turn green but the Test PTT button
does not activate. As with the RPi when starting wsjtx from the menu
option the 'Test CAT' button works as expected.
If the "Test PTT" button does not activate then you probably have
"Settings->Radio->PTT Method->VOX" selected.
I have had another issue on the RPi where my FST4W signals stopped
being decoded by anyone. When I got the 20.04/7300 combo working I was
able to monitor my own signals and could see that although the tx
frequency was set to 1442 Hz the tones were actually being transmitted
on 1228 Hz. I had previously set the Rx freq to 1495 Hz, resetting
this to 1500 Hz and it works ok although I cannot replicate this issue.
There is a kwnon issue in WSJT-X v2.3.0 RC1 that does not always
initialize the Tx audio offset to the Tx audio offset spin box, it is
fixed for the next release. You should be able to synchronize the Tx
offset with the spin box by changing the spin box value.
