A minor addition for Windows users. The COM port should be ‘Enhanced’ one for 
CAT control, see Device Manager – Ports (COM & LPT).

Subject: Re: [wsjt-devel] Hamlib error

 

As Mike has already said, USB is not a valid com port.   So the error message 
says exactly what the problem is.

Linux should be something similar to this:  /dev/ttyUSB0 or /dev/ttyUSB1.
My Icom 7100 is set to /dev/ttyUSB0 for cat control.   

Windows is a completely different beast.   Again, the error message saying that 
USB is not a valid com port.
Windows and the drivers actually assign a com port.   Usually, something 
bizarre like COM5 and COM6 using
the Icom provided drivers.

Follow in the installation instructions in Chapter 3 of the User Guide, 
combined with the driver installation 
instructions available from Icom.

Installed wsjtx-2.6.1-win64.exe on a windows 10 OS and received basically the 
same error.

 

The hamlib DLL on the Windows machine has a file date of 1/10/2023, a size of 
9.7 mb, and a file name of libhamlib-4.dll.

 

Have wsjtx set up for CAT control on an IC-7300. Some years back wsjtx was 
working on both Linux and Windows on the IC-7300.

 

Any suggestions are welcome.
