Hi, does anyone have this combo working? I have the latest version of Omnirig and IC-7600v2 ini. I'm also using VSPE - more on that later.
Log4OM and BandMaster work fine with Omnirig. However, if I then try to add HB9HQX using Omnirig nothing happens - the HB9HQX program times out and gives up. There is a cryptic note in the HB9HQX First Steps document: "OmniRig must be installed and configured but not running. "
If I start HB9HQX first and select Omnirig, HB9HQX works, but if I then start Log4OM/Bandmaster, I get the Omnirig configuration screen (twice) and nothing happens. No frequency display on Log4OM and BandMaster reports: "Omni-Rig is not installed".
I am able to run everything at once using DXLabs CI-V Commander (using VSPE) to control HB9HQX, but I would like to simplify the software environment...

Re: Using Omnirig with Log4OM/BandMaster and HB9HQX
Not all programs are designed to multithred when using Omnirig like Bandmaster, CW Skimmer, DX Atlas and Log4OM, clearly HB9HQX cannot and this is causing a port conflict.
You will need to continue using a VSP manager to be able to run these programs simultaneously

Thanks Terry, appreciate the quick response.

I'm using JT65 HB9HQX and Log4OM with my K3 and OmniRig without any issues.
Don't know BandMaster, but maybe I should take a look and add it to the "family".

Re: Using Omnirig with Log4OM/BandMaster and HB9HQX
Hi Terry, I found a good solution... now I'm curious why this works.
If I start HB9HQX using the "External software start" feature everything comes up fine. If I try and start it (or any other OmniRig client, such as the OmniRig Client.exe application) after Log4OM is up and fully running - it fails. Seems like Log4OM is "blocking" OmniRig after its fully up and running?

Thank you to Doug W7DRM for suggesting that I start all applications as an Administrator. Now everything works fine, no matter what order I start things. Thank you Windows 10!
