What is on the wiki should be reasonable. No, there is no difference between
setting up the 1500 to do digital modes and any of the other Flex radios
becuase it is PowerSDR that you are interfacing with, not the radio itself.

That is almost always a case of your computer's clock not being synchronized
to UTC. Check your computer's clock.

Sounds like a WSPR/JT65 problem which usually means the clock. If you are
getting good traces in the horizontal waterfall of WSPR then your computer's
clock is the first thing I would check.
