This isn't a configuration problem to solve. It's a function of the radio's
design. Check your serial number. Later models work fine. Early models
(prior to the 8G serial number series) had to have the AF board replaced to
work properly.
It may work with HRD, but I have a laundry list of

I had a buddy send an old cq and 77 bit cq.
I decided both.

old message, I would reply with old message. otherwise, why are there
separate selections for TX and RX message format?

While you can operate perfectly “fine” without CAT control for many digital
modes (including plain vanilla FT8), you need to be mindful of the placement of
your transmitted signal to ensure you aren’t bumping against the edges of your
transmit filters, i.e. the high and low ends of the waterfall
