If you're using Direwolf, then Direwolf controls the PTT. YAAC does not know when your TNC has a packet to transmit and whether the RF channel is clear, so YAAC must never control PTT; only your TNC (software or hardware) can control the PTT. Digirigs are not hardware TNC's; they are soundcards requiring a software TNC behind them. The only reason Digirigs have a serial port is to provide a PTT interface to the TNC software using the Digirig.
Regarding the window appearing on the wrong monitor, YAAC does remember your window positions. To clear the window position memory (i.e., you've gone mobile and disconnected the second monitor from your laptop), you can specify the -clearWindows option after the YAAC.jar file on the startup command line.

Hey Andrew,
Something really stupid my second monitor showed YAAC. I did not check it because it was shared with my work computer. This happened after I reloaded with the newest version because it was not there yesterday.
I do have a Direwolf problem with YAAC when I select the port the radio PTTs will release until I delete the port. Does your software use RTS when it selects the port? Per the Digirig developer, this makes it PTT the radio. I am using the Serial TNC port.
