Hi Chris. Thank you for your comment. Yes, I am definitely using USB-D. Please 
see my note I just sent to Bill G4WJS.

Also, if you're using the internal soundcard in the rig, make sure you're on 
USB-D and not just USB.. If you're not on DATA, the internal soundcard won't 
work, and you'll get no power out.

Good afternoon. I am experiencing a problem with what I believe might be an 
issue with WSJT CI-V addressing.  

 

My environment is WSJT-x version 2.3.1, primarily running FT-8 and FT-4. The PC 
is an I-7 desktop or an I-7 laptop using Windows 10 Pro version 20H2. The radio 
is an IC-7300 with version 1.40 firmware.

 

The problem with CI-V addressing occurs while operating in my RV. In this 
environment, I am using a Tarheel antenna and a “TennaTronix” Tenna Tuner-2 
antenna tuner. Because the Tenna Tuner-2 has a hard-coded CI-V address of 70h, 
I have to change the CI-V address of the 7300 to 70h from 94h and set the 
configuration of WSJT-x to emulate an IC-7000 Icom radio.

 

When I set WSJT to IC-7000 and change the IC-7300 CI-V address to 70h, I get a 
good CAT and PTT indications in the Settings screens, but audio tones are not 
sent to the 7300 when I push the “Tune” soft button on the FT8 screen. Also, 
the IC-7300’s USB-D setting immediately resets to USB. I experience this same 
problem on the FT4 mode screen.

 

I have successfully defined the environment as an IC-7200 (76h) and an IC-7100 
(88h) and everything appears to work properly.  Defining the environment as an 
IC-7300 (94h) also works properly. 

 

I appreciate any help you might be able to give me with this problem. 

 

Best regards de K9XT.

Hi John,

thanks for joining the list. You can override the default CI-V address used by 
WSJT-X/Hamlib by creating a file in the WSJT-X log files directory called 
hamlib_settings.json with the following contents:

{
    "config": {
    "civaddr": "0x70"
    }
}

That will allow you to use the regular IC-7300 rig setting in WSJT-X with your 
IC-730 switched to CI-V address 70h.

Having said that, I thought the IC-7300 was capable of using a different CI-V 
address on the REMOTE port from the one used on the USB virtual serial port for 
CAT control. You will need to unlink the REMOTE port from the USB port in the 
IC-7300 menu, then set the Ci-V Output (for ANT) menu setting to 70h while 
leaving the main USB virtual port using the default of 94h.
