Wayne,

doing that means that any settings you have for SSB operation must reset when using AFSK data modes, also make sure you mic is not live while transmitting AFSK data modes! All you need do is check the "Settings->Radio->Mode->Data/Pkt" option in WSJT-X and it will switch to USB-DATA mode for you.

Hi Wayne,

I also use USB mode on my K3 so I can use the equalizer to improve
receiver sensitivity above 2.5 kHz

Compression is set to zero

Wayne,

why have you set the Mode to USB, you rig has a USB-DATA mode
specifically for AFSK data modes.

hi Bill, problem solved, there was a check box in DXCommander [ Data Transmission from USB interface] that needed to be checked. I am just so happy, thankyou and everyone else on the forum for being so helpful

Bill & Wayne,

Just remember that with the DATA selected on that TS-590S, you also need to go into the radio menu down in the low 30's & re-adjust  the filter settings! Otherwise, you won't decode low & hi frequency qso's.

hi Bill I think you are getting close to the problem. I just checked on the TS590s monitor and I hear weak audio from WSJTX and also realised that the mic is still operational.
The Transmit audio source had been on front mic. when I have DX Lab Commander this option is blanked out and cannot be changed however I was able to change it to rear/data by changing rig to TS590s. here is a screenshot of my present radio page. Maybe I will try to set up wsjtx direct and not via commander. I am thinking that the ts590 is not switching from front mic to rear data for some reason. Although my old laptop which uses wsjtx via dx commander is working fine

Wayne,

when using DX Lab Suite Commander as a rig control proxy for WSJT-X with a TS-590 you need to set the option in Commander to tell it to send the right CAT PTT command to tale audio from the ACC or USB connection.

Instructions are here:

hi Bill, no I have the mode set for USB in Settings>radio>mode  and I run the TS590s in USB. I have the same settings in my old laptop which is transmitting ok with the TS590. I have my son coming over today who built the station computer hopefully he can sort it out. I thik the problem is somewhere in the computers audio routing and not in WSJT-x or any settings in he TS590s. If all else fails may have to pay the local computer technician to have a look. cheers Wayne VK4WTN
Hi Wayne,

apologies, this thread has become so fragmented it is hard to follow.

OK, for the TS-590S(G) you must check "Settings->Radio->Tx Audio Source->Rear/Data. Do you have that? You also need to set the rig menu settings correctly to take AFSK data mode audio from the ACC/USB connection, as well as set the menu setting for audio level of the USB input.

Wayne,

earlier you showed us a WSJT-X "Settings->Radio" panel with "Mode" set to none, that means you have to set the rig mode yourself. Is your rig in USB-DATA mode?

I'm just not sure what to try at this point. I'm using WSJT-X v2.2.0. Any suggestions? I'm missing out on a nice morning opening to EU on 6m FT8!

Hi Rick,

Windows updates often reset settings. Try going through the instructions in this old post:

Thanks John I don’t think that the problem was the radio as it still works with my old laptop.As soon as I sort the computer out I am actually getting an FTDX3000 so I will remember about the mic menu
