Re: [Elecraft] Fldigi for Windows 3.12.3
The problem seems to be that I am using the Virtual Serial Port Emulator software to allow multiple programs such as KTune and KComm to control the K3 at the same time as Fldigi. Something has changed in the latest version of Fldigi so that it will no longer work with VSPE. Not even Hamlib will work with the virtual port, even if I close down all the other programs that were using it. If I close VSPE and set up Fldigi to use the real serial port then it works with either RigCAT or Hamlib. This is probably of interest to anyone who uses KTune and/or KComm as I describe using VSPE to allow two or more programs to control the radio on my website. With Fldigi 3.12 you can't do that. I don't know if it is a matter of configuring VSPE differently or whether there is any other workaround, but that seems to be the situation at the moment. :( - Julian, G4ILO.

[Elecraft] FlDigi for Windows
Has anyone succeeded in getting FLDigi for Windows (http://www.w1hkj.com/Fldigi.html) to work with a K3 (or K2)? It is quite a nice digital modes program, and I am trying to get it to co-operate with my logging program KComm, as it would be nice to be able to use the two together, but first I have to get it to work at all. The sound card part seems to work OK, but I cannot get it to put the radio into transmit. Using the TTY option to do the PTT does not seem to work at all. The RigCat option involves downloading a k3.xml file from the site, editing it to put your own com port and speed details in, and saving it to the folder where Fldigi keeps its other data. This does not work reliably. Most times it doesn't even pick up the frequency. When it does, it doesn't put the rig into transmit (it did once, and one only, and I have never been able to repeat it), and then it usually locks up. Often it freezes when clicking the Initialize option as well. Fldigi apparently works best with Hamlib, but that appears to be a Linux only thing, at least I can't find a Windows version of it. So if anyone has got this program to work I'd like to know how they managed it. - Julian, G4ILO.
