Any help on the following situation be appreciated. Trying to help ham
neighbor get going on MMTTY. Has Pro 3. Uses Rigblaster Plug and Play on
USB as a soundcard interface. He has been successful with PSK, using Digipan.
I did the standard MMTTY installation. Selected Com 1, Sound Card
etc. Would not transmit, but would receive. Selected Sound
Card/USB. Nothing. Just messing around, and went into Radio Control and
selected Pro 3. Now would transmit a single tone, no RTTY.
Next, I tried to use EXTFSK. Followed instructions on Don AA5AU's site and
notes from JE3HHT and JA7UDE. EXTFSK window only allow me to select Com
1. Transmitted; only got a single tone; no diddle; no RTTY.
I then checked out the computer. It is a generic PC. The operating system
is Win XP Pro with Service Pack 2. I checked Device Manager, which says it
has LPT 1, Com 1, COM 3, and Com 4 - also Device Manager sez both Com 3 and
Com 4 are "in use" and that the Plug and Play is on Com 4.
Back to MMTTY/EXTFSK set up, and try to select Com 4 to see if could maybe
do it that way, using sound card. Not let me select anything but Com
1. So double checked that I had set up EXTFSK per instructions. On the
MISC window, I trying checking all the options in turn, but ended up with C
- limiting. I tired to select Com 4 in the EXTFSK window. Red warning that
bad and only allowed me to select Com 1; not let me select any other Com
port, including Com 4. Transmits solid tone. Receives and prints out fine
on receive.
Know I am rambling, but first time I have been stumped trying to help
someone get going on MMTTY. Acknowledge I am not that technical, and
appreciate any help.
Thank you in advance,
Mark N7MQ
