Re: Low audio output from WSJT-X into G90 through DigiRig


 

I'm probably being Capt Obvious but do you have the power slider all the way at the top on the right side of WSJT-X?

The title may be misleading, but this is where I am with this right now.

?

It all started when I decided to set up HF packet via DireWolf last week. Everything was working fine, but I started having trouble staying connected to remote stations.

?

As part of an article on setting up a BBS on HF Packet, one of the suggestions I read was to delete the PulseAudio system completely. I did so. Immediately after, I had very low audio output from WSJT-X into the rig. I had the power set to 10W, but I was only hitting the radio with enough audio to transmit one watt. The ALC was at 100% no matter what I tried. Using alsamixer, I could get the output down to zero by moving the slider to 0 or muting the speaker.

?

I reinstalled PulseAdudio, but still had the same issues.

?

This installation was initially a Build-A-Pi installation, but I decided I would start from scratch, but rather than use build-a-pi, I would do a minimal install. I would install only FLRig and WSJT-X. I also thought my cheap USB soundcard might be the culprit, so I ordered a DigiRig.

?

I also read that there was an issue with the G90 itself, and the updated firmware has new modes available (U-D mode, USB digital). So, I updated the firmware on the G90 to the latest on the front and back ends.

?

So now, I have the following:

A minimal installation of the OS
WSJT-X installled. It is receiving and decoding perfectly, but will only transmit a low audio level signal.
Digirig replacing the old USB soundcard
FLRig installed. It controls the radio just fine.

?

And I have the same issue I started with.

?

Is there something I missed??
