Re: MS apps under Ubuntu WINE
I find that ADIF Master and DXAtlas run quite nicely on WINE. They are my remaining "indispensable" Windows apps. I use Linux Mint in the shack daily and have not regretted the switch from Win11.

Re: MS apps under Ubuntu WINE
Another recommendation for Crossover and this time for Linux.
t is as James said, a reasonable license fee, and it is solid and it works well. Even some complex Windows apps run on it. Another good thing about Crossover is that you get support from them. There were a few apps that needed special files to work, and they figured that out and got them going for me.

Re: MS apps under Ubuntu WINE
Paul,
?
When Win 10 came out I moved to Mac but I still had a need professionally and personally for some windows applications. ?I used the Parallels solution for years but they too were big into money and their licensing sucks. ?
?
I recently moved to Crossover for Mac and love it. ?Crossover runs on Linux and the Crossover team is a major contributor to the Wine project. ?Yes, it cost me some money but their licensing is per user with multiple machines. ?To me it was worth the money for the ease of installation and the peace of mind. ?I run Winlink and VARA FM and Microsoft Visio with no issues and will be experimenting with some Motorola programming software. ?
?
Submitted for 'what it's worth' - worked well for me. ?And, BTW, I have a Mac Pro trash can running Mint and will be adding Crossover to it as well. ?Agree with Bob below - Mint is a really good solution.

Re: MS apps under Ubuntu WINE
Paul,
I use Linux exclusively: a generic Ubuntu installation on my main workstation. I have used the native Linux Zoom client extensively, heavily, for work during the past several years -- without issue. I also used it for a CWOps class (with the same "native sound" tweak that people required on Windows boxes). I download the latest .deb straight from Zoom.
I use TSQL natively.
I use "qrq" for, I think, similar training as RufzXP.
And I've been using LibreOffice and its predecessors for more than 25 years now, including for work, graduate school, doctoral thesis, etc. It's solid and very capable. I just live with the fact that Microsoft doesn't want competitors to be open their documents with the formatting perfectly intact (and ask for a PDF if formatting matters).

Re: MS apps under Ubuntu WINE
I would recommend MX Linux.
There's a really helpful Forum and many Hams using it.
It's also Debian-based (They also provide non-systemd and systemd
options).

Gary,
Thanks for the notarized updated Flrig.
FYI, I did decide to bite the bullet and update my MacOS to 15.1 from 14.
It turns out that all my apps Flrig, Fldigi, JS8call, WSJT-X, GridTracker2, and RUMlogNG continue to work.
This may be due to the fact that they had already been up and running on my previous MacOS, I am not sure.
I have not tried to download additional apps and install them yet, but wanted to mention the old ones are still working.

You can assign yourself to the dialout group using

Re: No S/SWR/Power Meter on Ten Tec 550 Pegasus

Try out different ones to find the one that works for you. Problems are solved by doing internet searches, asking ChatGPT, or just messing around with it and learning from it.

flrig Transceiver Bandwidth - Can't Scroll
Hi all,
Have experienced an issue with my Ten Tec 550 Pegasus and flrig, where I cannot select a transceiver filter bandwidth because the scroll feature automatically resets to the top of the selections when I attempt to scroll down. Upon selection of a bandwidth and closing the selection dropdown menu, the selected filter shows that it has switched back to 300hz, but the radio still sounds as if the selected filter bandwidth is correct, just not indicating correctly. This seems to only occur in USB, LSB, and CW modes, I can still correctly set the filter bandwidth in AM mode without the scrolling issue. As this is difficult to describe, I¡¯ve attached a screencast of the problem.
This is on flrig 2.0.0, 2.0.05, and 2.0.05.85 on MacOS 15.2 and Fedora Linux 41 x86_64.
Happy to help however I can to solve this.
Very respectfully,
Geoff Marr

No S/SWR/Power Meter on Ten Tec 550 Pegasus
Hi all,
Thanks for all the work you do on the fl-suite of software.
Wanted to share an issue I¡¯m having with flrig and the Ten Ten 550 Pegasus transceiver. I can connect and operate the radio just fine through a USB-to-serial adapter properly configured from flrig, minus the S meter, SWR meter, and power meter. I have
tried versions?2.0.05 and 2.0.0 on Mac, as well as versions 1.4.7, 2.0.0, and 2.0.05 on Fedora Linux and Raspbian, to no avail. None show the any indication of the meter.
I¡¯m happy to help troubleshoot further, just don¡¯t know what would be helpful right now. Any help here would be great!
Very respectfully,

"Yes, for Kyodo one needs 576/60. Fldigi removed
the line setting from its interface at some point,
quite a long time ?ago. What I did, was that I created

second altered Fldigi.
So yes, I can confirm this behavior of a removed lines

I think the best course of action is to permit
changing the combination of all those parameter as it
