Locked flex radio error in radio setup under flex6xxx #FlexRadio

Can confirm this problem is still happening, Yestorday I upgraded to RC5 from RC4 on princetons website, and then my Flex Cat control wouldent work as shown in OP's post. Used the new dll and pasted it in and its working again! Thank you guys.

The Princeton site still contains the broken version.

This 64-bit DLL fixes the problem.  32-bit DLL will be available tomorrow from https://n0nb.users.sourceforge.net/

Willie,
What is the error? You say the Flex/Anan PowerSDR selection works....is that with the network connection to a Virtual Port of USB-Serial connection?
Thanks,
Pat, W5VY - Flex 6700

Downloaded file still no joy same error

The Flex/Anan Powersdr/Thetis in radio Settings does work just an FYI

Would seem you didn't place the dll in the right place or didn't call it libhamlib-4.dll

Mike's fix has things working for me with my Flex-6700...thanks!

Fixed on our Flex6400 following the procedure set by Mike. Make sure WSJT is closed AND SSDR is closed.

It's been fixed.

New hamlib for installation directions

#1 Shut down WSJTX

#2 Download either the 32-bit or 64-bit DLL matching the 32/64-bit version of WSJTX -- hopefully your browser doesn't block it but may warn you multiple times.

If you can do a "Save As" you can save it directly in the appropriate WSJTX directory
C:\WSJT\WSJTX\bin and replace the libhamlib-4.dll that is there.

http://n0nb.users.sourceforge.net/dll32/libhamlib-4.dll

http://n0nb.users.sourceforge.net/dll64/libhamlib-4.dll

Linux/Unix/Mac users need to compile the latest tar file from http://n0nb.users.sourceforge.net
Note: If compiling on Unix-like systems please uninstall any Hamlib package you have before installing the new build

#3 If you don't save directly you need to open a file browser and move the file that way.

If you're not familiar with that here's a video on the file browser - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyVqCJrs9dk
