I'm trying to use FLDigi as an encoder/decoder with the Xiegu G90. I think I'm?close.
?
The problem is I can't get the FLDigi waterfall to show activity.
?
Adjusting the?two selections at the bottom of the waterfall, only changes the background from black to blue. The trace for the incoming signals, usually yellow and red, is non existent.?
?
The?Signal diamond?is black 99% of the time. Every once in a while it will tick yellow or green.?
?
?
If I put the VFO on a spot on the G-90's onboard waterfall with no activity, the decoder is still producing text. The decode function of FLDigi seems like it's trying to work, but it's gibberish. If I tune into ARRL's W1AW practice code station it is decoded, (just okay), but still no activity on the waterfall.

Rig: G90
Sound card: DigiRig
Rig control (CAT): FLRig. Works perfectly BTW
Squelch: Off
Computer: Evolve Win10 mini laptop
Antenna: Diamond CP5H, 5 band vertical
Keyer: WinKeyer USB
Software: latest versions of FLRig, FLDigi, and G90 firmware
Environment: Urban, high noise floor
G90 gain: I've tried between 43% and 100% and it has no effect has no effect.
Other digital modes: FT8 and FT4 work flawlessly. Winlink works okay too.

I feel like the incoming sound level isn't right. I've mucked-around with the computer sound settings, but that didn't resolve the issue.

Note; in the shack, when I substitute an Icom IC7300 for the G90, everything works. When I use FLDigi, the IC7300, and desktop PC, it functions?perfectly?pretty well.
