Hi - been away from WSJT-X for a while. Just installed v2.2.2 on my MacBook Pro, running OSX Catalina 10.15.6. I’m using an Elecraft KX2. I am seeing something very different on the decode process than what I had seen on previous versions - several months ago. When on FT8, the progress bar goes across almost to completion, and a bunch of decoded signals display in the left panel. Then, the decode button turns off, then back on and several (usually 2-3) more signals are shown in the last panel. The older version didn’t do that - when it was done decoding, it was done, period. Where this causes an issue is when that left panel is almost full at decode time. Just as I’m about to double click on a station to call, those last few lines pop up on the screen, moving the one I was going to call up a few lines. Do I have something set incorrectly in the preferences that causes this? Jim Bennett / W6JHB Folsom, CA

Hello everyone. I just joined this group today and have a question that hopefully can be answered. Please forgive me if this has already been covered; I tried to find documentation on this issue without any success. The download and install of the program went just fine. However when I try to launch the program I get 2 error messages about shared memory. I have attached screenshots below. Does anyone know why this is happening and a possible remedy for it? Thanks, Michael Rieger KJ7BRM

For those, who like me, have had issues with Windows 'messing' with the USB/audio there is a very interesting article that explains whats going on. Its called USB soundcards and is in the Data section of RSGB magazine - Feb 2021. Basically, it explains that every time a USB device is plugged in a 'note' is made This record is added to each time another/same device is plugged in. This can lead devices not being registered correctly in favour of the 'default' devices. Hope this is useful. Regards - Phil (G0DOR)

Hello everyone, After 30 years without a mac - my last and only one was the Mac SE - I took the leap and bought the Mac M1 Mini. I am proficient at running wsjt-x on Windows and Linux. I cannot get Wsjt-x to even run. This is the error messages I get before it crashes. I have run the apple diagnostic program and it found no errors. Help would be appreciated. Ken w6bzy

Since installing 2.3.0 rc3, I no longer see my radio being automatically turned on by WSJT-X - how do I make that happen again? -- 73, Patrick, W6AJR

When my PC turns the screen off (not sleep mode), and then wakes up again, WSJT receives OK. But when I try to transmit, the CAT/PTT stuff works OK, but no audio is sent to the rig. I have to restart WSJT to actually transmit a signal. I just changes PCs, and this didn't happen with my previous PC. Both were running Win10 through a microKeyerIII to a Yaesu FTDX101. This may be more of a PC question... I just don't know where to look... Thanks, Frank W2YK

This document was originally posted by Bill, G4WJS as part of a long thread. Assuming you are running on MS Windows and have installed WSJT-X, this explains how to set Tx audio levels correctly: The issue you may have with Windows WSJT-X Tx audio levels is due to the "Pwr" slider in WSJT-X no longer being linked to the Windows mixer control for the Tx audio device. This means that you must set the mixer slider manually, this should be a one-time operation. Setting the mixer control is a two step operation. Firstly you must set the mixer control to maximum. The mixer control is only visible when transmitting so use the "Tune" button in WSJT-X. It is advisable to reduce the "Pwr" slider in WSJT-X to minimum while doing this to limit the output power, or do this part with the rig switched off. The mixer slider will look something like this: Once the mixer is set to maximum the second step is very important. You must now adjust the master level for your Tx audio device to 0dB. The level control for that is in the audio playback device properties for the Tx audio device which looks like this: If your slider scale is not in decibels then right-click the slider and select decibels. Your audio device may not have gain, in which case 0 dB will be fully to the right. Some devices do have gain, *in those cases it is critical that the gain be reduced to 0 dB* otherwise a severely distorted transmit signal will be produced. Once you have completed this one time setup you can increase the "Pwr" slider back to maximum for full level audio output from WSJT-X. I recommend rechecking your Tx levels elsewhere, e.g. data modulation level adjustments on your rig, audio interface level controls etc. to ensure that you are not over-driving the audio input of your rig. A good method is to use a 1,500 Hz Tx audio offset "Tune" tone with the " ;Pwr" slider at maximum and your rig at maximum power into a good dummy load. With that arrangement reducing the interface or rig's data modulation input level until little or no ALC is indicated on the rig is about right and should give around 90% of the maximum output of your rig. If your interface and rig do not have any Tx audio level controls then it is OK to use the operating system audio device master level control as shown above to reduce the audio level to a correct amount *so long as the critical 0 dB level is never exceeded*. Once this setup is complete you can make routine Tx power adjustments using power control on the rig or the "Pwr" slider in WSJT-X. Bill G4WJS. It is also advisable to prevent windows USB interfaces from being place into power save mode. The instructions are here. Don't forget to include HDMI interface as they also utilize audio. http://www.dxlabsuite.com/dxlabwiki/PreventUSBPortPowerDown

Happy New Year . January 2021 marks the first anniversary of this group's merger with the old WSJT Yahoo group. The merger went quite well.
