[ADXA] wsjt-x blues...

[Jon W. Reynolds]

I haven't ever caught it doing that! I have noticed that if I leave wsjtx up on my computer, the screen saver on the ftdx10 won't come on. I use a raspberry pi to control the radio, with a vpn tunnel back to my house...so I can check on it during the day if anyone spots any dx I'd like to check in on! Fairly primitive set up, but so far it works well enough for the on the go radio guy!

I don't know if this would have helped in your situation, but in WSJTX, I keep it pinned down to 3 or 4 calls before it stops tx-ing on the runaway watchdog protocol, just in case I lose cell phone connection while I'm logged in.
