????? . set_force_PTT

? FT817/8
??? * Added FT818ND
??? * Yaesu has found that the undocumented "BB" command adds undue read/write
????? wear to the FT-81x flash and Yaesu no longer can get this type of flash.
????? Rather than damaging the radios, Yaesu eliminated the command from
????? the FT-818 onwards.? The undocumented CAT commands previously used in
????? the FT-817 driver will still work on the older radios, but run the
????? risk of permanently disabling the rigs.
???
????? Based on this information, there are now two FT817 interface selections
????? . FT817 - only uses documented commands
??????? flrig will not report which VFO is in use and will simply toggle between
??????? VFO A and B rather than going directly to either one.
????? . FT817BB - uses undocumented commands in read-only mode
??????? flrig will report which VFO is in use and will going directly to either one.
??? * FT818ND does not use undocumented cat commands

? Tx Queue
??? * force pending tx queue actions whenever PTT is invoked

? FT450/D
??? * Correction to inoperative methods
??? * Add AGC / RFGAIN controls to FT450

? macOS Info.plist
??? * fix mkappbundle.sh script file

? Version 1.3.54

I run fldigi with cat control. It works well but one small problem. When I start a macro to transmit a message it takes 10 to 15 seconds to key the xmitter. (FLRIG USED) Also when I change frequency on the radio it takes several seconds to show up on the digi main screen.
Thanks
Mike

Once in the macro editor then right click anywhere in the editor and the popup menu will give you the usual edit options of Copy, Paste, etc. By using these tools you can move things around easily.

For instance if you want to swap two macros positions then Select All and Cut from the first one then go to the second one and paste at the end of that one. Now select only the older part of the second macro and right click and select cut. Now go back to the first one and right click and paste in the now empty first location. Of course edit the button descriptions.

The other day we had severe Tstorms and Tornadoes in our state, it would have been handy to have ability to check the Wx at the incoming track stations while maintaining the local setup. Yes I can change the ICAO designator back and forth, just would be nice to have an alternative station(s) available.

interesting question if at 14000 and you operate CW-U you would still be legal? , correct?

Oh... ?one more observation.

Why is the rig set to a VFO dial frequency of ? 14.000000 MHz ?
Any CW signal puts you OUT of the ham band lower edge

Maybe helpful to locate the issue…

I have also fldigi 4.1.18 and tried a little bit.

What is working: <WX> without additional parameter. I tried KMDQ? (default) and EDDK (near to my location). Has to be set in the WX-Configuration part.

Not working is, if I try? <WX:KMDQ> or <WX:EDDK>. Equal if the same or another value is set in the WX-configuration part.

Seems giving the parameter do not working ?

Older versiions and grasping at straws ... neither will solve the problem.

Send me a copy of this file "fldigi_def.xml".? Find it easily by using the fldigi menu item "File/Folders/Fldigi config ...".? Send it to my bellsouth.net address.
