In reading Gary Hinson's FT8 Operating Guide he says 'there is no need to work simplex' and should configure the Radio tab in WSJT-X Split Operation to Rig or Fake It. I have the Rig set to "Ham Radio Deluxe" and when I set Split Operation to Rig WSJT-X (v2.2.2) crashes (shuts down). I can set it to Fake It but I'm not sure exactly what that does.
I guess my question is with a FlexRadio Systems FLEX-6300 should I just leave the Split Operation set to None and just set my transmit frequency to a clear area with Shift-Left Click?
Also, since WSJT-X has been working just fine with the Radio set to Ham Radio Deluxe (which is the software I'm using) is there any reason I should change this to FlexRadio 6xxx setting?
