[wsjt-devel] Hamlib communication interruption WSJT-X on transmit

2017-12-20 Thread Lou Crocker
Hello, I have observed what appears to be a computer-rig communication error on transmit. I have observed this when either using Tune or in Echo mode - I am just setting this system up so I have spent little time transmitting in other modes (the rig worked fine during one QSO at HF). __

Thank you for the suggestion. I do have a powered USB 3.0 hub., I just tried it and I see the same behavior ("Bus collision..."). I don't have an ethernet cable - just a wifi card in the computer. I just tested the radio plugging it into a front USB port away from the wifi card, but I observe the

Bill, Thank you so much for that advice! I shut off the CI-V transceive setting and radio is now going through TX-RX cycles without any problems, even with power set to a finite value. I don't know why that setting was set to on in my radio - maybe that is the default value; I haven't used that f
