Locked WSJT-X 1.6 & DXKeeper


stephen_qrp@...
 

Hello

For some time I have been using WSJT -X 1.3 in conjuction with JTAlert -X 2.4 and DXKeeper very successfully.

I have now installed WSJT-X 1.6 and cannot find a way to get JTAlert and DXKeeper to play nicely with this latest version.

JTAlert-X 2.4 will start WSJT-X 1.6 and DXKeeper as before,  but does not capture anything from WSJT-X 1.6 .
I must be doing something wrong but no amount of head scratching can find the answer.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

Regards to all

Stephen

Hi Stephen,

the latest version of JTAlert is 2.6.27, I would advise that you update.

Can you be more specific about what is not being captured by what please?

Hello Bill

Stations being logged by WSJT-X 1.6 are not being "seen " by JTAlert-X.
I had thought that JTAlert-X  2.4 was the latest and that JTAlert 2.6.27 is for JT65-HF, but will check it out.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Hi Stephen,

one cause for that is having one of the cooperating applications (WSJT-X or DXKeeper) installed in "C:\Program FIles" or "C:\Program Files (x86)" or having one of the applications running with Administrator privileges.

Hi Stephen,

glad to here that, thanks for the update.

With that version you can enable the UDP messaging in WSJT-X in "Settings->Reporting" and JTAlert will use it. That also allows replies to CQ calls and QRZ calls by double clicking the alert itself in JTAlert.
