Upgrade Log4OM2 to 2.12 messed up HamLib connection to my IC-756 ProIII

Post by LA1QH »

Hi, I wonder if there is a bug in the new version 2.12.00 or something I did wrong... Remote control or freq. read Icom IC-756 ProIII did not work after upgrade to v 2.12.00. I upgraded my USB drivers rebooted after every config change, but at last I had to reinstall v. 2.11 and select Hamlib rig model 357, IC-756PROIII 0.7.1 beta.

Any idea anyone?

Hi all,
I have similar problems after upgrading to the last version (2.12).

Since my rig is an old Kenwood TS-450S, I have to use custom parameters on hamlib command line, but after every upgrade all my custom params are overwritten by default ones and CAT stop working.
Unfortunately, after adding back custom params, this time CAT no longer works.
I also tried to use hamlib as a separate service, using the last available version (4.1), running rigctld on my own and letting Log4OM2 use my instance via TCP connection, but CAT still doesn't work logging a lot of "Command ' ' not found!" errors.
Using rigctl (client) against the same rigctld (server) instance works without problems, so I guess there is something between rigctld and Log4OM2 integration.

The only way to let new Log4OM2 version partially works with my radio is to manual edit json configuration, add custom params for hamlib, save the file and start Log4OM2, but after starting CAT operations my radio continuosly switch between VFO A and VFO B.

The only way for me, at least for now, is to revert back to 2.11, which uses the old hamlib, and wait for a fix.

No there is a bug in the latest version of Hamlib, please change to Omnirig until the Hamlib developers fix it.
