Unchecking the WSPR band hopping checkbox fixed the random band

communication errors, so FT4 is actually usable now.

The error detail varies a bit, one example is Rig Communication Error:
Hamlib error: Communication timed out while opening connection to rig

I've also seen "Hamlib error: Communication timed out while sending
frequency to rig" (paraphrased)

Hi Christoph,

Joe has fixed the unintended interaction between WSPR band-hopping mode and FT4 mode for the next release. Thanks to you and the others reporting the issue and tracking down this surprising regression.

I don't recall if the Icom IC-706 Mk0 can accept CAT commands while transmitting, I doubt it as it has pretty primitive CAT control. Make sure that you have "Settings->General->Allow Tx frequency changes while transmitting" unchecked. You can also try simplifying the CAT communications by selecting "Settings->Radio->Mode->None", you would then set the rig to USB manually.

If that doesn't help then I can send you an instrumented version of WSJT-X to track the CAT communication in detail, or explain how to enable that in your own build.

Thanks for pushing this RC to Debian/experimental!
