I have a Yaesu FT-747GX that I am able to successfully use CAT control with through JS8Call and WSJT-X through a DigiRig mobile.

?

I am trying to get it working with flrig, but am not having any luck. I choose my radio from the dropdown, set the correct serial port, and always get the "Transceiver not responding" message when I click "init," even when I launch flrig before anything else after turning the computer on.

?

Has anyone had any luck with this setup? Not sure if it's related, but I cannot get rig control with CubicSDR to work either.

Thanks for the reply. I am a part of that group and have no issues communicating with the radio through the digirig using JS8Call or WSJT-X?

I don't recall the different orders of operations I've tried, I will have to go back and try a more methodical approach.

?

I have not tried interfacing flrig with wstj-x, I am first trying to get flrig working with my radio.

Yes, I believe WSJT-X uses Hamlib.

?

Getting flrig to work is what I'm trying to do. I cannot get it to communicate with my radio.

That's what I'm trying to get to. I want to get the radio communicating with flrig, and then I will communicate through flrig to each other program.

?

To my knowledge the radio will not power on over CAT, there is a latching button on the radio that is pressed to turn it on and off.

I don't think my first reply worked, sorry if this is a duplicate.

Originally I was using whatever version came pre installed on DragonOS, 1.4.something. last night I installed 2.0.04 and I had the same issue on both versions.

I'll have to double check what version I have, I thought 2.0.04 was the most recent on the website.

Thank you, I'll reply back.

Yup I can manage that. I will give it a shot tonight and report back.

?

Do I need to remove the current version or will this overwrite what is currently installed? If I need to remove the current version, can you tell me how to do that? I always get confused as to how to uninstall software on Linux.

Well I have installed 2.0.05.81 and mimic'd you settings exactly, with no luck. Not sure if it helps, but this is the trace when I click init:

I've attached debug_log and trace here. The output of that command is:

I would like to note that selecting /dev/ttyUSB0 results in the same issue.

whether I use /dev/ttyUSB0 for /dev/serial/by-id/... I get the same results. One thing I meant to mention is that when I click init the audio on my radio stops for a split second and I see the "CAT" symbol on the radio come on for about a second then turn back off.

Is it possible that this cable works fine with software using hamlib but not flrig? I would have thought if it worked for one it would work for the other.

I have not had the change to try another computer.

Thank you for taking the time to help me troubleshoot this. I see other people seem to have had luck with the digirig and flrig, so I am going to continue trying to figure it out.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I am part of the dialout group. I did the chmod command also and no change. I don't believe it's a permission issue since I have this same setup working with other programs.
