[Dx4win] DX4W and WSJT conflicts

[Keith Beebe W3KB]

I can run them side by side (DX4WIN and WSJT-X) on the screen but here 's the catch.

Since they both must use the same port (in my case COM 6) for CAT control of the rig one must be "off" and the other on.

DX4WIN has a way to take the CAT offline.  In the upper left menu see RADIO and scroll down to STOP RADIO.

WSJT can then remain on CAT control on the right side of my screen.

So DX4WIN and WSJT are both on the screen but DX4WIN is not on CAT control so they don't conflict.

Unfortunately, the opposite is not true.  WSJT has no way to turn off the CAT control.

Therefore, I must shut down WSJT completely and turn the CAT control back on for DX4WIN.

Wish WSJT had a way to stay running and turn off the CAT control (like I can do on DX4WIN) but it doesn't.

Is what it is.

I have been running DX4WIN on the serial port of my FTdx101D because thats the way my FTdx1200 was set up, What I'm trying to do is run DX4W and WSJT at the same time. Is there a way to run one or the other on the USB cable? Both are on COM 3 now. The USB is running the WSJT audio now.Thanks, computer illiterate Dick NY1E ______________________________________________________________
