I am trying to set up Fldigi in a winxp computer. I have an IC-746 connected to a Rigblaster Pro and to my computer. If I go into config and select rig control and try hardware control, select rts/dtr, device on com 1. Try initialize, my PTT on the RB lights and the rig goes into transmit. Similarly RigCtrl using the IC-746 xml file, try different selections (com2 does not key ptt/radio) initialize keys RB and radio. Also hamlib does the same. If I try to use the program to send something I hear the audio but the RB does not key nor does the radio go into transmit. I also have winpskse available and the settings are 'ptt via com port with com 1 selected' The RB PTT lights up and the radio transmits. I must be missing something on FLdigi but what? the frequency also stays at 3580.00 and I am unable to change the 'no rig selected' above the frequency.
Any suggestions?? John ve3sjv
