Thanks for the info.  I've been wanting to get on with those modes.
I have a SignaLink USB as well as a KAM-XL, and a simple soundcard interface.  I do Win-7.  Heard too much about problems using Win-10.
And just got the TS-2000X back from repair.

I was going to start playing with FT8.  I spoke with W5BGP, and he helped me, but I couldn't find anyone working, and couldn't get out if I did see someone.  For giggles, I installed WSJT-X over on my ubuntu linux side and bam, I could see folks everywhere!!!

Ubuntu didn't like my signalink, so I switched back to windows ten, and I could see folks everywhere just like on the linux side.  After some more playing, I made a dozen contacts in about a half hour.

The reason I'm sharing this is sometimes a fix can be found in the strangest ways LOL.  I have no clue why it worked, since the software is completely independent of each other, but I wanted to toss it out there.
