A couple of complaints from those who were using a single instance were having 
problems with the constant open/close of the serial port.So it was changed to 
support the simple case and those that want the more complex case of multiple 
apps have to use the additional file as WSJT-X authors have decided to not 
include any options in the rig control user interface.
I'm looking at the sharing now to see if there is a problem going on.

Hello Bill

  

Following your instructions I use your file  (looks the same as I use before) 
and I place in the properly log directory for each of the WSJT-X (totally 4) 
and doesn’t work, the PTT is not share.

  

I wonder why if in WSJT-X 2.2.2 the PTT com port was share by default now is 
not?

  

Regards

Alex, HB9DRI

Hi Alex,

  

try the attached file. It needs to go in the log files directory of each WSJT-X 
instance ("Settings->File->Open log directory").

Hello Mike

 

Sorry I didn’t answer to the list;

 

I create a file named hamlib_settings.json and paste inside the code you send 
me:

 

{

     "config": {

            "ptt_share": 1

     }

}

 

Then place this file in C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\WSJT-X and in 

Each of the 4 WSJT-X folders but doesn’t work,

The PTT port is no longer shareable by default.

 

Place this file in C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\WSJT-X

 

{

     "config": {

            "ptt_share": 1

     }

}

Just to inform you, I found a bug regarding COM port for PTT, it appears in 
WSJT-X 2.3 and in 2.4 RC1, let me explain.

 

I run 4 WSJT-X at the same time, I use Omnirig to control my IC9700 but PTT is 
manage via a COM port, this is a must for me to TX first a Sequencer via the 
COM port and later TX the radio, I cannot use CAT for PTT,  that guarantee me 
no RF spikes etc. 4 WSJT-X plus MAP65 plus WSJT10 are all configure to use COM3 
for PTT, in this configuration I can TX with ANY of the 6 programs, more 
precise I can TX with the program were the decodes or best decode happens, 
unfortunate since WSJT-X 2.3 and 2.4RC1 I can TX ONLY with the FIRST program 
who opens the PTT COM port, the other ones don’t work and MAP65 give a opening 
COM port ERROR, the other WSJT-X simple don’t TX, would be great to fix this 
bug because when you run multiple WSJT-X is a must to work with all instance 
capable of TX, WSJT-X 2.2.2 works perfect.

 

To confirm this bug I roll back to 2.2.2 and install 2.3 and later 2.4RC1, the 
bug appear in 2.3
