General discussion forum / Garbled CAT responses when sending CW
« on: 2012-12-12, 18:54:06 »
I'm setting up an Elecraft-twin configuration for a friend. I'm using Mode-7 for COM1, so he can run logging software at either end. I have a simple CAT client that just polls with the "FA;" command every 500ms. I notice that when I send CW, using the paddle input, I start getting garbled FA responses on COM1 at the radio end (haven't checked the Control end yet):
I'm guessing that Q154 and Q155 are part of the RR protocol for sending CW, and they seem to be "leaking into" the CAT stream.
We've been trying to run LP-Bridge on the COM1 port, and it basically works, but keeps crashing. I strongly suspect that garbled responses are causing the crashes.
Firmware is 2.65.
