Hi Hugo, In my case I have a somewhat older transceiver and so have audio connected to one USB port and the CAT to another. Hope you get it going. |

I think someone's done good marketing with the Windows
plug-n-play advertising. MS have moved to a subscription model,
and also Windows as an Appliance "seems to be a thing too".. Just because some of it works, most "joe public" users expect *Everything* to work that way, and cant, wont, or don't have the basic thought processes to even start to debug something like WSJTx related sound IO issues logically. Not helped by all the "Windows Help" websites populated by ex CB "Screwdriver Mechanics". (Yes, I know there are some stunningly good sites, but people seem to be attracted to the dross these days.) Bu comparison, anything Linux/BSD based, as the population is probably more tech savy to start with, the quality of on-line help is an order of magnitude better and more to the point, with less rubbish. (I didn't say no rubbish! Sadly much of that is Pi based, from Windows users...) Use the OS of your choice, but learn your way around it, at least the basics, and especially basic security. Plus, any specialist needs (the crazy sound IO system in this case) for applications etc. 73. Dave G0WBX. Of course that is true but I think it is way out of proportion.

Hi Greg, Actually, on FD, as I understand it, most work on "low" power of 100W or less - the natural power output of their rig, in order to run on emergency power; i.e. generator or solar & battery. 73 - John - N7GHZ On Thu, Jun 25, 2020, 12:25 AM Greg Winterflood <greg.winterflood@...> wrote:

Because at 3 am when you've been working for 16 hours, and one eyeball is already asleep & the other is more than halfway there & you've done something silly like doing a windows upgrade... and it blows up your audio settings - it would very nice to have clearly labelled port settings in order to quickly restore before that big contest. It comes down to this, most people set this stuff up once, and then may go months or years before something bad happens. By then, they have forgotten how to set it up and have to start from scratch, drag out the misplaced directions and waste hours & hours trying to get it to work right - again. But do as you see fit, it was merely a friendly suggestion, made in order to help prevent hair loss. 73 - John - N7GHZ On Wed, Jun 24, 2020, 8:35 PM Greg Winterflood <greg.winterflood@...> wrote:

Re: Uh OH! Serious bug for Field Day!
K7RA Tad Cook
This should be no problem in Field Day. Odd as it may seem, the Field Day rules do not require you to log anything, such as the time for each QSO or the section of the station you are working, although you are required to transmit your ARRL section.. All it requires is a list of stations worked and a summary sheet. I didn't believe it myself when a few decades ago I went out for Field Day with the Western Washington DX Club. I was dutifully logging the time of each contact, along with the other station's ARRL Section and callsign, and K7SS asked me what I was doing. He pointed out that all I needed to do was maintain a dupe sheet, listing the calls worked, but because of the relaxed logging requirements, everything else I was doing was superfluous. In fact he told me, if I missed copying the ARRL Section of any station I was working, do not ask for a repeat because I did not need to log or report it. "But, but!" I've been told, this is a practice for emergencies, not a contest! K7SS pointed out that in a real emergency one would not be engaging in any unnecessary communications or unrequired logging.. I had a copy of the rules with me, and sure enough, he was correct. I've operated this way ever since. It is much simpler. Of course you do have to log the times that you start operating and stop, to make sure you do not violate the time limits for the event. And this year there is a rule change, allowing Class D stations operating from home to work each other. But there has never been any requirement to log each QSO. 73, Tad Cook, K7RA On Wed, Jun 24, 2020 at 2:20 PM JP Tucson, AZ <samcat88az@...> wrote:

I run it on GalliumOS, a Linux distro for reflashing Chromebooks. The rig I use it on is a Midnight Design Solutions 40m Phaser. It works great, so long as you use a USB sound dongle, as the built-in Chromebook sound system might as well be a crisp, tasty waffle. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- 73, Gwen, NG3P On Wed, Jun 24, 2020 at 9:44 PM Jim Shorney <jshorney@...> wrote:

Kubuntu 18.04 here, rock solid. Been running Linux since before my first JT65 contact in 2014. Kubuntu is one of the more visually appealing distros if you like that. You can, of course, turn all the eye candy and geeky animations off. If you do run into trouble help is just a search engine away.

WSJT to N1MM Logging.
Rick Ellison
Sometime tomorrow there will be either a new full build or an Experimental
version of N1MM built for interaction with WSJT for the upcoming Field Day. It was brought to the developers attention tonight that the Exchanges that WSJT-X used last year for logging the FD exchange information were not the same this year. So the class and section were not being logged correctly. I went back thru all of the revision notes for WSJT-X and I find this mentioned no place in those notes. This is not something that should have been missed a couple of days before the contest. Unless the N1MM team is notified of changes that need to be made there would have been a lot of un happy users this weekend. 73 Rick N2AMG -- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |

Re: WSJT-X on an RPi3
VE3KTN
Thanks Bill, and to everyone who has responded so far. I did get a private email from one of the wsjt group members who steered me in the right direction for installing the armhf package and I now have V2.2.2 loaded and launching on my Pi. The issues I have yet to figure out are the correct usb port ID's, settings and other necessities to get the Pi installation conversing with my ft-991a. I've had my Windows7 and -10 rigs working for quite some time and have no trouble between them and the 991, but things are rather different with the Pi setup. Mainly trying to find out which audio i/o is correct (there's about a dozen selections that are available and the default doesn't work) and which usb port is which. So far, I've not been able to get a green TEST CAT and even worse, under some circumstances the Pi will key my radio and not return a green TEST CAT. In fact, it doesn't even give me a red TEST CAT. So something is communicating, it's not right, and I have more work to do to figure it out.
Here's a question: With my Windows rigs, I have Yaesu drivers which install as virtual COM ports which facilitate CAT and communicate with the sound card that's part of my radio - all over one USB line. I don't think that's the case with Linux installs, so is it still possible to have both CAT control AND use the radio's sound card over one USB linw? I REALLY don't want to mess with making up a separate audio cable to the radio's DIN multi-pin interface. If the Pi setup needs a USB and separate audio lines, then I'm afraid this experiment will be a no-go and it's back to Windows. Richard, W4PID, thanks for the link. I'll look into that - maybe the answers lie in there. Cheers, Hugo, ve3ktn. |
