[Dx4win] DX4WIN and WSJT-X

[Wes Printz W3SE / ZL3TE]

Hi Mark,

Long time no see.  Hope all is well.
I don't know of a way to have two programs control the same rig as the rig only has one port.
Unless you can configure the CI-V for one port and the serial for another?

My Work around is Start WSJT-X first, as that is sensitive and will complain as you have seen.
Next open DX4WIN, let it inform you your port is not available, then click through the next 3 dialogue boxes.  DX4WIN will open but Without Rig Control.

Hope this helps.

73, Wes, W3SE / ZL3TE
