Probably best if I add a few snips. The first configuration works perfectly. However, in this mode using USB you must select Rear/Data as the TX audio source. I wish to use the REMOTE SOCKET PTT as the radio goes over last from a sequencer as is often the case for VHF ops. I have always run this way. BUT the Transmit audio source is disabled when you use RTS. The PTT works but I can no longer access the USB input, this is a BIG problem for me. Why can I not select the transmit audio source?

I think that this is a HAMLIB bug. How long does it take to fix these things generally as I assume that this is a Hamlib problem?

Conrad,

it seems you have not understood the purpose of the transmit audio source option in WSJT-X. It is available for rigs like the TS-890s which have a CAT PTT command  (TX) that has two variants to select the Tx audio source. If you are not using CAT PTT then WSJT-X via Hamlib cannot use the TX CAT command, because you have explicitly told it not to.

Regardless of the above, the pin you to key the rig also has the same function, if you use the PTT pin then the audio source is the mic socket, if you use the PKS pin on the ACC socket then the Tx audio source is the PKD pin on the same socket.

So in summary, it is down to you to wire the PTT to the correct pin on the rig, neither WSJT-X nor Hamlib can do that for you!
