Is "Use PTT via Cat Command" black (i.e. checked)? DTR and RTS are not needed when using CAT for PTT.
Is he getting a frequency readout of the IC-746pro on fldigi? 73, Skip KH6TY ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andrew O'Brien" <k3uka...@gmail.com> To: <digitalradio@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Sunday, February 15, 2009 6:29 PM Subject: [digitalradio] Re: No PTT, FLDIGI with ICom 746P and Digikeyer Still no go. I am talking him throught this via Skype, so it is not easy. He placed the Icom 746 Pro xml file in the FLDIGI.FILES/RIGS path, He selected RIGCAT in FLDIGI CONFIGURE area and selected USE RIGCAT. He saved and re-booted. When rebooted, FLDIGI says no RigCAT above the frequency read out, there is no rig control. He has baud rate set to same baud rate his rig 19200, and comm port selected is comm 5, same one he previously had some rig control (but no PTT) when using HAMLIB. He is not sure which setting for PTT to use, RTS or DTR, he tried both, no control.
