Re: Does anyone have a solution to wsjtx not transmitting on zbitx?
Not working here?
Leo, AI5II
I have WSJT-X working fine. Software zbitx 106
ZBITXSelect? Digi mode on Zbitx
Turn ZBITX TX RF down,? as the audio TX drive is very high
**WSJT-X: Does updates for Rig Control Regarding Frequency Changes and Receiving**
WSJT-X? Settings: Network Hamlib 127.0.0.1 Cat Data -rear -( not microphone /? front)
Split none
You might also lower the PWR slide bar on WSJT-X.?

I am getting hamlib protocol errors.
CAT is kinda working as I can change bands.
I am also seeing rigctl timeout errors if I use rigctl to connect to the zbitx.
Is it just? me or does anyone else have these issues.
FYI, I browsed the hamlib.c file and there is a comment in there about it being receive only.
Much help? is needed here.

Re: Tariffs and zBitx Shipments
#zbitx
Eliminating de minimis will be a big nuisance, and will end up costing more than just the tariff does. In Europe they have to collect taxes from the recipient, and the fee that the big shipping companies charge to do that often costs more than the tax itself does. It also usually makes it impossible to get packages shipped to work rather than home, because the receiving department isn't prepared to pay for personal packages.
Andy,
I don't have a "desire" to only hear "what is", I was simply pointing out that we were talking about two different things - me discussing what is, you discussing what might be. Both are equally valid topics...
While it can be fun to speculate what might be, the range of possibilities in regards to the current situation vis-a-vi international tariffs is so vast it almost seems fruitless to try and guess (please go on if you feel the need), but please don't use me as your foil - I don't disagree with you and your comments regarding me were close to condescending and there's no need for such here in this forum... at least not in my opinion.
Take care,
Ken, N2VIP

Joe,
the problem is with a fellow amateur, not with the settings. Cat doesn't work on zbitx.

Leo,
try the new uSD card, although I doubt that will fix it. I would delete the program and reinstall it.
I don't remember if I updated it right away when I started with sbitx. I don't remember any cat errors, except for the ones caused by the settings.

This is what my sbitx was setup?to work with wsjt-x
Joe? VE1BWV
Yes, i did resolve it. I thought i had documented or taken pictures of the settings.
I am looking thru my old paper work.
( I have sold the Sbitx a while back so don't have it to compare to)
Hmm maybe even in one of my emails. Checking
Joe VE1BWV?
Joel, if I remember correctly, you had a CAT problem with wsjtx back in the 32-bit era. Did you manage to fix it?

Re: Tariffs and zBitx Shipments
#zbitx
Ken - there are additional orders which go into much more detail than provided by the fact sheets.? While China appears to be the first country to have the de minimis exclusion removed, other countries are also being prepped for removal.? It's outlined in the EOs and the logistics world is already preparing for additional processing from additional vountrirs.? It appears that India is one of the countries in the proverbial target zone.? While this doesn't yet fit your desire to only hear "what is", it does support my earlier point that once a threshold is crossed, it's much easier for the kudzu to spread.
?
I hope the de minimis exclusion remains for imports from India.? In this current environment, however, I wouldn't bet against it.

I believe all of HF Signals products are assembled in India, and while the components inside their products most certainly come from China, they are not subject to U.S. import tariffs having passed thru India.
