Hello, when I look at this further and compare running up ver 2.61 and any of the 2.7x versions I have, the pull down list for choosing the RIG in version 2.61 shows an option with this text: FLRig FLRig any of the 2.7 or 2.8 releases in that same section of the rig selector show just: FLRig
I am unsure if this is an error in an array of rigs or some other method used to populate the list of rigs but what is in the pull down list seems to correlate to what is populated in the WSJT-X.ini file. At some point when the 'bad' value is read at startup it seems to trigger an error and this is the details of the error: Hamlib error: rig_token_lookup called for client rig_confparam_lookup called for client 1:rig.c(817):rig_open entered rig_settings_get_path: path=.hamlib_settings rig_settings_load_all: settings_file (.hamlib_settings): No such file or directory rig_open: cwd=C:\ham_radio\wsjtx-2.8.0-imp\bin rig_open: C:\ham_radio\wsjtx-2.8.0-imp\bin/hamlib_settings does not exist rig_open: async_data_enable=0, async_data_supported=0 serial_open: COM3 serial_open(229): open failed#1 serial_open(229): open failed#2 serial_open(229): open failed#3 serial_open(229): open failed#4 serial_open: Unable to open COM3 - No such file or directory port_open: serial_open(COM3) status=-6, err=No such file or directory rig_open: rs->comm_state==0?=0 1:rig.c(1023):rig_open returning(-6) IO error IO error IO error while opening connection to rig Timestamp: 2025-07-28T06:57:34.969Z There is no COM port in my configuration, CAT is used for PTT so I have no clue why it is trying to open COM3 (My 1st COM port on the PC) Regards, Peter, vk5pj On Sun, Jul 27, 2025 at 10:48 AM Peter Sumner <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > for some time now (all of the 2.7 variants and now 2.8) when I open > WJST-X or swap between configurations, I end up with a rig control error > and the current rig is shown to be "ADAT www.adat.ch" and not the > previously selected FLRIG setting. > > I have learned to live with this for a while and today decided I should > report this difficulty for evaluation. > > I use the FLRIG interface as it lets me see on my PC desktop what the SWR, > power out and other settings of my two icom rigs as I do a lot of operating > from the comfort of the house rather than the 50 metre journey to my shack > in the stables shed. > > So far I have tried an empty INI file a few times and the error occurs > with each iteration of testing I do, where I have set up multiple > configurations. > > If I leave it as a SINGLE configuration then there is no error seen.
