Hello Bill
I can omit to work with Omnirig BUT the IC-9700 config embedded in WSJT-X have the same behavior that the PTT, only the 1st WSJT-X instance can manage, the only way to have SHARE CAT com port was using Omnirig.

OK, I now understand what is happening. The Hamlib configuration overrides do not currently apply when using any form of CAT control other than Hamlib, including via Omni-Rig. I will change that for the next release. Another option is not to use Omni-Rig, which may be dependent on other applications you use. The Hamlib rigctld (which we ship a version of with WSJT-X called rigctld-wsjtx) also supports the PTT sharing configuration option. 73 Bill G4WJS.

My config in Radio tab in ALL WSJT-X instances: For RIG: I use Omni Rig 2 where CAT is configure over a separate port, this works ok ( I never succeed to use the IC-9700 option in WSJT-X) For PTT: I use com port 2 RTS, that works good v2.2.2 or in 2.3 and 2.4rc1 if only one instance open the port Mode: None Split Operation: RIG I don’t use CAT for PTT because I need to PTT first my sequencer, then the sequencer PTT the radio as last event.

What settings are you using on the "Settings->Radio" tab of your WSJT-X instances? 73 Bill G4WJS.

To confirm the problem I install in another computer two WSJT-X and use your file and doesn’t work. As you mention in one of your last emails you will back in the next release to sharing the PTT port, something make totally sense if you consider it was working ok in version 2.2.2.

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

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 73 de Alex, HB9DRI
