Macro Buttons - Style
8
Many years ago there was an option to set the Macro Buttons style that made them look like glass (see through) instead of a solid color. I cannot find an option to do that in version 4.1.09 on my Windows 8.1 computer. Is that optional button style style still available? Thanks, George, NJ3H Redmond, Oregon

RX/RTX Character Set
3
Greetings, I like to decode the Europe feed of news items as described at RTTY.com. Please see the attached picture. The gentleman that is one of the go-to people on this replied to by question as to why apostrophe's are printed as <BEL>. This only happens on the Europe feed and not on the ITTY feed (US news items). Here is his response: ============================================== I suspect there is more than just this problem. I think + will print as “ and = will print as ; There may be a few others. This is because there are multiple standards for Baudot. The US uses USTTY and Europe uses ITA2. Everything on the Europe feed prints well on a European teletype machine because those printers are mechanically set up for ITA2. When I first put the Europe feed up, users in Europe complained that things were not printing correctly. One complaint was that apostrophe was triggering the bell on their machines! This is what you are seeing in FLDigi. I originally had the Europe channel on USTTY and had to change it to ITA2 Interestingly, the apostrophe and bell are actually switched between the two code standards, so if I send a BEL, European machines will ring the bell but FLDigi will print an apostrophe! If I send an apostrophe, European machines will print an apostrophe but US machines will ring the bell. ============================================== So my question is: Is there an equivalent character set to ITA2 in FLDigi. There is not one called ITA2. Thanks for reading. Regards, George

What does fldigi 4.2.06 send when T/R is toggled?
6
If TXID (and RXID, I suppose, though it shouldn't have an effect) is turned off, and I toggle T/R, I see fldigi TX something at the beginning and the end. I don't have anything in the TX pane to send. It seems to send something, then a bunch of nothing (expected, because there is naught to send), then when I toggle T/R off, fldigi sends another brief "something". 73 Rich NE1EE The Dusty Key On the banks of the Piscataqua

Hide TX Section of the FLDigi Screen
9
It would be nice if there was an option to hide the TX portion of the screen to allow more room for RX traffic. I am not doing any transmitting and I am sure other hams and SWL folks just might desire more receive room on the screen. I already have set Rig/Log Controls to None. Whoever the powers to be are, please consider this. Thanks very much. This is a great program. Regards, George, NJ3H Redmond, Oregon USA

fldigi 4.2.06 delay dropping PTT after TX with HT
8
I am using a digirig 1.9. Windows 10 fldigi 4.2.06 If I select Tune, when I toggle it off, PTT drops within 1 s. If I toggle T/R with no data to send (just for testing), the delay is there after I toggled T/R > R. The delay is 5-6 s by stopwatch. It was repeatable for many tests. I have all the fldigi delays = 0 where I know to look. I seem to recall that in the past there was no delay...I can check earlier versions. I havna checked this with a mobile. I didn't think to check other HTs, because I figured they are all the same, AND Tune drops PTT immediately. I didna find this on the forum recently, for the searches I could think of. 73 Rich NE1EE The Dusty Key On the banks of the Piscataqua

flrig server/client question
I found "Hamrs" software to assist in logging Pota stations, and although there are a few settings I don't like, this email is to ask about the server/client option flrig provides ( used by Hamrs). when I use flrig, on my desktop, but qsy via wsjtx, flrig follows by cat port used. If I use hamrs on a laptop, then use the server/client option on that laptop. hamrs on that maching, will cause the main machine to follow and cause the radio to qsy ( although mode dos not follow) my question, is , Is the main flrig suppose to go backwards and cause the client to qsy. it does not at this moment it seems to be one way only. is that correct?

Fldigi UI has me flummoxed
6
I have a super basic question. What is the section of the UI called that contains the frequency window, the logging area, etc., and specifically, the mode and bandwidth section called? It's the area between the header and the macro section. I'm looking for a description of all of the functions in that area. Without knowing the correct nomenclature, I can't search. Is there an image that has ball-notes for each item/button? Thanks

Yaesu FT-818, SCU-17 and flrig 2.0.05 on Win 10
2
Hi all, Just a little quirk I noticed (and which caused me quite some cursing and despair): When the FT-818 is in WFM mode (say, used as an ordinary FM radio receiver for your favourite FM broadcast station) and you try to connect it to flrig, the program crashes when trying to initialize the radio. Workaround: Simply switch the transceiver out of the WFM band (say, to any of the normal Ham radio bands, Shortwave or 2m/70cm) before trying to connect to flrig. Thought you might want to know before running into the same issue. 73, Oliver (DL1OVS)

MacBook OS and Failure to Transmit
20
I am fairly new to Fldigi (three years experience) and have a question. I recently upgraded my 2024 MacBook Pro to Sequoia 15.3.1 OS. Ever since the upgrade, Fldigi fails to key my radio transmitter. Messages in the “transmit pane” are being in being sent as they appear in the "received pane", but the radio transmitter is not being keyed. My set up is as follows. MacBook Pro - Sequoia 15.3.1 OS Radio Kenwood Th-D 74 Fldigi 4.2.08 Soundcard. Digirig I am including a file, listing my configuration settings. (See below) It is important to note that prior to the latest Mac OS upgrade, Fldigi was working perfectly. Is there any information regarding this problem? Thank you! Tom Thomas M. (Tom) Fields.

Perseus and WEFAX Decorers
Greetings, I have an issue with the Perseus with FLDigi an BlackCat WEFAX (the only two decoders that I have. Note the vertical interference marks showing on both decoders. However on the Perseus, there is not such interference shown in the spectrum nor the waterfall view. Both picture attached to show the Perseus is not showing the interference When I use my RSPdx and HF+ Discovery, this situation does NOT occur. I am using the same antenna for all three radios. I have tried the Perseus/decoders set with a VAC and also the signal to the PC speakers. Does anyone have any possible ideas what might be causing the vertical interference lines? By the way, I have tried powering the Perseus with a PSU from Jameco and with a USB cable. One more thing: I can not get the brightness and the other slide switches to work on the right-hand side next to the spectrum/waterfall screen. I have never notices an issue before. Regards, George

FLRIG 2.0.05 and IC-7300 PTT/Transmit problems in CW
4
#windows11
#cw
#flrig
#IC-7300
I'm in the process of learning CW, using the MorseMania app and I'm doing really well on instant character recognition, but I have 0 sending skills at the moment. I'd like to use FLRIG or FLDIGI to send CW but I'm having problems... when I use the CW Keyer in FLRIG, it doesn't trigger the IC-7300 to transmit? If I use the same application to do FSK Keyer - it works fine... And so does the "PTT" and "TUNE" button on the main FLRIG window... Anyone have experiences with FLRIG and the IC-7300 CAT PTT? Here is how I have FLRIG configured: Any and all reasonable suggestions are greatly appreciated ? 73 de KZ4JN

FLRIG 2.0.05.93 Rigcontrol with IC-7300
4
I am having problems doing CW Keying from the FLRIG program. When I go to Keyer | CW Keyer and type a message and press Send/Pause, the transmitter doesn't transmit but the software acts as if though it is (marquees the message that I typed). If I do the same but use the FSK Keyer - it DOES trigger the rig to transmit.. I have the following settings for Xcvr and PTT-Generic: Can someone help me figure this out? I am hope that fixing this - will carry over to CW working in FLDIGI as well.. Oh - while I'm at it - can you tell me - when you use FLDIGI to transmit/decode CW with the IC-7300, is your radio set to CW or LSB-D/USB-D ? Thank you!

Jupiter and flrig
11
#flrig
I cannot find any recent information on this and I am stumped. I have a Ten Tec Jupiter (TT-538) and am running fldigi 4.1.14 and flrig 1.3.51 on Windows 10. I have been running fldigi with no problem for 4 years, but I have never gotten flrig to work. Cat control works with other programs. The current problem I have is that flrig tells me: "Transceiver not responding" and to reset the com port. The com port is correct and available. There aren't many other options. It's a Prolific USB-Serial cable, not FTDI. Any ideas? -- 73, Lem W1LEM

New Computer

Hello, I've been using a WIN7 Toshiba Satellite for a long time. It is loaded with FLDIGI 4.0.18 and works quite well. I decided to move up to WIN10 and purchased a refurb Dell Optiplex 7010 quad core intel i7 3.4GB DDR3 ram ITB SSD running WIN10 pro. I tried using my Easy Digi by KF5INZ. Downloaded the latest config of FlDigi and not having much success interfacing with my Yaesu FTDX1200. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Just remember I'm a dinosaur stumbling along trying to figure this out. Thank you, Ron Speer W6RRS
