Re: qmx SSB Firmware beta 1_01_004 release + WSJT-X
|
Good morning, Hans ¡ ? I am using Windows 11, 64 bit. Only WSJT is connected and other two ports unused. The system plays nicely for a short time and then drops the ports. After turning radio off and then back on, the ports are back. ? Just to be clear, this issue is NOT present with 003 version. 73 Dick, K5AND ?

Subject: Re: [QRPLabs] qmx SSB Firmware beta 1_01_004 release + WSJT-X? You reported COM ports got dropped in the new firmware - I have not seen any problems. But I am using Linux.?
It would be very helpful if you can provide more details. What is your OS (most important question)? But also, did you connect ONLY WSJT-X via CAT, or were you also using the other two ports for something? I ask, because quite possibly there is some kind of unwanted interaction between ports; it's quite tricky to create a multi-session system and I may have neglected something, something that doesn't provide perfect isolation between the different connections.?

I have just been operating FT8 with lots of contacts on 40m for over an hour now, with no com port problems.? For the last half-hour, I also connected to the QMX terminal and started the "Input analysis" screen - so it was actively using two of the com ports with no issues. So I'm not seeing this behavior.?? What do you have your wsjt-x 'poll interval' set to?? Mine is at 60sec; I changed it to 5sec for the past 15 min to see if that made a difference, but so far OK, including a fun QRP contact to the VP2VI expedition, and another the opposite way to Hawaii, so QMX is doing well on 5W!.
