Audio Keyer difficulties
Posted: 06 May 2014, 23:34
I found some peculiar behavior when setting up the Audio Keyer. I have successfully recorded several messages.
The first issue is that when I first open the Audio Keyer dialog with the Radio PTT tool bar button, and press the PTT Button the rig activates fine. When I press on one of the message buttons, the rig goes into Xmit, and the message plays to the rig and audio is transmitted. All fine so far. But if I close that Audio Keyer window and reopen it, the PTT still works, but none of the Messages will work and the Call on Air green display does not appear. To regain functionality, I have to shut down the program and restart it.
Also, if I close down the Audio Keyer window, then open up the Settings window, then close the Settings window, then reopen the Audio Keyer window, neither the PTT function or the messages will work.
Additionally, with everything working, if I leave the Audio Keyer dialog open, then open the Settings window and close it, the PTT function will no longer work on the keyer. The message buttons will also not transmit, but the Green Call on Air sign will display.
Here is my setup:
Rig: IC-7600 with USB rig control via OmniRig and using rig's internal USB sound card function.
Computer: Win7 x64
Log4OM Settings/Audio Settings tab:
From Radio (Microphone) : Microphone (USB Audio CODEC)
To Radio (Speaker) : Speakers (USB Audio CODEC)
Hope this makes sense.
