Anyone able to get ICOM IC-707 Transmit working?


 

I am using Fldigi 4.2.06.
I have Rig Control set for "Use Hamlib".
For the Hamlib "Rig" setting I have "Icom IC-707 (Alpha)" selected.
Other then the Hamlib "Device" and "Baud rate" settings, all other Hamlib settings are set to default.
Screenshot of Hamlib settings attached.
?
My issue is that I am unable to get fldigi to trigger the transceiver to actually transmit when transmitting in fldigi.
?
Note that if I check the Hamlib "RTS/CTS flow control" setting then it DOES trigger the transceiver to actually transmit but is then stuck in transmit mode.
Note that if I check the Hamlib "RTS +12" setting then it DOES trigger the transceiver to actually transmit but is then stuck in transmit mode.
Note that fldigi DOES display the correct frequency from the transceiver and DOES update it when changed on the transceiver.

what are you using for sound card interface?? perhaps you need to use the vox method, and not cat ptt

I am using Digirig?Mobile as my PC-to-Rig interface

RE "perhaps you need to use the vox method", what would that mean from an fldigi configuration perspective?

Thanks,

John

does the digirig have vox setting like the signalink??? i dont know, if not , then perhaps putting the radio in vox on mode, and ptt via rts? maybe

Ok, I'll look into the vox approach.

But here was my thinking with trying to get fldigi to work "natively", since I can indeed get fldigi to trigger the transceiver?to transmit by manually toggling the?Hamlib "RTS/CTS flow control" and "RTS +12" settings, then I know that fldigi is able to "talk to" the transceiver?and get it to transmit.
The only problem with manually toggling?the Hamlib "RTS/CTS flow control" and "RTS +12" settings is that the transceiver?stays transmitting until I uncheck the settings.

So, I'm thinking that some sort of fldigi configuration may still be a possible solution...I'm just?don't have enough fldigi debug experience to figure it out.

BTW, is there anyone out there that DOES have deep fldigi debug experience that would be willing to help me on this over a call or video meeting?
I would be happy to pay an hourly rate for anyone's time on this...perhaps venmo...if anyone is interested, let me know.

Thanks,

John
