Re: FSQ in FLDIGI: center frequency questions
Not understanding issue but check your sweat spot in config. Change that to what you want to TX on. Hope this helps. AB1PH

It ooks like FLDIGI will allow one to set an arbirtrary center frequency for FSG, as well as use the traditional 1160 Hz annd 1500 Hz center frequencies.
But in testing it looks like FSQ always only transmits on 1500 center frequency.

Re: help with dotted yellow lines: I am dense
My thanks to KD8FTR and Bob for clarifying?this.
I believe that is the decode area for RSID.
You can adjust the width in setting in case a station is a little off frequency.
Right click the RxID button and click the box on passband if you want to decode a signal anywhere in the waterfall, otherwise it's centered on your modem center.

Re: help with dotted yellow lines: I am dense
Oh shd point out that Waterfall | Display has the colour
settings;
Signal BW, Center line, Signal trks, Notch, RsID Zone, Monitor,
so depending on your colour scheme/palette, yellow could be
something else

Re: help with dotted yellow lines: I am dense
Hi Don
RsID detection bandwidth. The dotted lines disappear if RxID
button upper right is not green. The colour can be changed.
See Configure | Config Dialogue | IDs | RsID
Settings box in lower right of sub window, "Min BW Detection"
Apart from modem setting, RsID is very important to get you in
the ball park for vestigial tone modes like OFDM and 8PSK. Not
really important for IFK modes like Thor, Domino, IFKP and FSQ.

Could it be an errant value in RsID squelch open time? I think
the default is 5 seconds.

Raspberry Pi 4, bookworm, I leave my radio (Yaesu FT-710) and
RPi running all the time.? Yesterday I was getting a lot of
decoded noise and I noticed that the squelch was off so I turned
it on - noise decoding stopped.? Yesterday at 8pm it was set
correctly.? This morning it is off again and I have a lot of
decoded noise to sift through in order to see actual traffic.?
Any idea why it turns itself off?? Is there some way to turn on
squelch and have it stay on?

Hi Don
I often run two instances of fldigi using the same audio device
(Icom 9100) I also can concurrently run wsjt-x and qsstv. CAT is
shared via flrig. I do of course QSY for the latter modes. The 2nd
fldigi instance is mainly for RX only but it does allow TX.
Pulseaudio and Pipewire under Linux quite happily share the audio
channels. I assume Windows has a similar feature.
In the config the 2nd fldigi instance has "Flrig PTT keys modem"
under rig control checked. I don't use it this way, but I can (for
example) TX two separate modes on the same frequency with (say)
different audio offsets.
My main fldigi command start is;
/usr/local/bin/fldigi --home-dir /home/user/.fldigi
My main fldigi command start is;
/usr/local/bin/fldigi --home-dir /home/user/.fldigi.rxonly
The configs also differ in the TCP ports used for flamp I/O. No
doubt flmsg would need a similar setup. I don't think flarq can be
setup that way though.
TX/RX contention would be an issue. I have not looked into that.
Perhaps PSM (under fldigi) could be used to detect the "other
modem" in the same bandpass and thus stall the TX for a while.
wsjt-x needed some features disabled so it wouldn't do automatic
CAT things.

Re: Can one run two instances of FLDIGI at the same time?
Hey Don:? If the question of running two instances / versions of FLDIGI at the same time is related to being able to do FLDIGI and FSQ "simultaneously" then the answer may be to use FLDIGI for FLDIGI/FLAMP messages and the FSQ Call program for FSQ.

Oh and to explain my PSM suggestion Don.
PSM is "kind of " like the old AX25 FM squelch detect where the
TX wont key whilst a valid signal is still in the RX passband. It
does this by "buffering" the outbound signal and asserting PTT
only when the RF channel is clear. It can also add the usual
slot/persist delay numbers to reduce hidden TX problems.
I used it in the past with fldigi when I setup some auto
responding notification scripts. Simple command stuff like "send
me a picture", or "what is your current GPS output". PSM let me
send a reply as soon as the channel was clear rather than using a
fixed delay.
For your particular case the TX audio also needs to appear in the
RX stream. The simplest way to do that is to just enable the
transceiver monitor. If that isn't available a local audio
software loopback will probably work.

Re: Can one run two instances of FLDIGI at the same time?
Okay, as long as you are transmitting 2 at one time, it may work fine. It goes without saying that you won't be able to send one and receive the other at the same time.
Still use 2 directories, a different port for flmsg, rig, amp, or arq on one file.
Vox shouldn't interfere. Other methods of PTT could clash if trying to use separate methods. I would suggest setting up for whichever mode has a longer transmit to do PTT keying. Then activate your second mode which should just send audio.
