Mike, et al
I was going to ask a similiar question. After many times trying to find the
culprit
and fixing what I thought was the problem, I now am seeing it occur in the
following
situation -
My two radios are IC756 pro2 and FT1000mp. It has not occurred on the FT1000mp
in many contests but it occurs on the IC756 pro II several times during a
contest.
I suspect the following - Writelog is commanding PTT and using FSK keying
for the
IC756 pro 2. The PTT command is going thru the CI-V interface over which
the rig frequency
is also being requested. I think the PTT command is not getting there. If I
am quick enough to hit the
foot switch when this problem occurs, the rig transmits (ie PTT) !
I am going to set the polling to "sync" next time to see if that cures it.
If not, I will get a
different PTT signal there like I do for the FT1000mp because of its
dropping the commanded
PTT during CW
Has any other user of IC756 pro II had this problem and what polling
setting do you use?
BTY most of these observations were using 10.39 version
