No power output with SUNSDR2DX EESDR3 cat mode

Hey all,
I noticed this issue when using FT8. Running JTDX, JTAlert, and GridTracker.
I have a SUNSDR2DX I'm running EESDR3.
When I connect LOG4OM2 via TCI CAT connection on 50001 I get no power output when JTDX keys the radio.
In EESDR3 I have 3 ports 40001, 45045, 50001. LOG4OM2 seems to only want to connect to 50001. I'm thinking there is either a conflict in ports or LOG4OM2 is not configured correctly. When I disengage CAT in LOG4OM2 everything works fine and it logs properly. JTDX is using TCI and I think it is on 50001 (but I'll double check that this evening).

My sunsdr 2 dx works fine using 40001 with EESDR 3.0.13 TCI and Log4om You probably have something set wrong in those other programs

That's the thing that was odd. Everything works perfectly until I enable CAT in LOG4OM2. FT8 still decodes fine, spots show up on Gridtracker, JTALERT still shows results. I just have no output on the radio. It's like enabling CAT in LOG4OM2 is blocking something or conflicting with something.

Which version of EESDR 3 are you using?

What is the SunSDR 2 DX firmware version?

Are you using an eCoder? if so what is the firmware version?

What is the exact version number of Log4OM - Help/About

I'm not at home at the moment, but I did just build the computer and everything is the latest rev. Firmware and all software are all the latest releases as everything was installed within the last 2 weeks. I can get actual numbers of releases later today.
