Today I installed WSJTX-v3.0.0-rc1 on my Windows 11 partition

(I already installed and used successfully this app on my Linux partition, that I use as my main system).

By selecting radio "Hamlib NET rigctl", I cannot control my RIG anymore, it is an old YAESU FT-100.

Note: _With previous WSJTX version this setup never failed!_

To keep my stubbornness up and strong 🙂, I insisted to use Hamlib to manage the radio CAT and I found a solution:

I created a bat file (named "start_rigctld.bat") containing:

@echo off
cls

REM start rigctld for FT-100
start C:\Programmi\hamlib-w64-4.6.5\bin\rigctld.exe -m 1021 -r COM4 -t 4532 --vfo VFOA

And I put this file into the Automatic startup Menu of Windows (Windows key+R to open that location).

In this way, rigctld is started automatically any time system is started.

*Oggetto:* RE: [wsjt-devel] Partial loss of CAT radio control


This is a followup to my message from yesterday:

If I reverse the order of which program starts first then WSJT-X can
control the radio until I make a QSO, at which point the software
cannot communicate with the radio.

This is a show stopper; I hope it gets fixed before this becomes
released as the next version.

I just upgraded to WSJT-X v3.0.0-rc1 250915 from WSJT-X 2.7

Prior to this upgrade I would start Log4OM v 2.36.1.0 and then WSJT-X.

I use OmniRig Rig 1.

Now if I start the programs in that sequence WSJT-X cannot control the
radio; before the upgrade it could.

If I reverse the startup order both programs work as expected.
