Not correct, Iņigo,

The PC sound card has a microphone and speaker part that are completely separate. This is absolutely
identical to the sound card that was in the old dongle. There is no problem using this, assuming you
turn off Windows sounds. That is why they took out the sound card, because it isn't needed.

Hi Sam,

Glad to hear that you found the problem and it was indeed a K3 setting.

I retired back to the U.S. a couple of years ago after about 40 years away, but we go to Germany during the summer.

Good luck back in Japan!

Hi Sam,

It is extremely unlikely that the problem is caused by the RRC. You said that you took the cabling
off and redid them, so I suspect that there is a broken audio cable, possibly between the RRC
and the K3/0 mini. The mini uses the "octopus" cable, so it would be difficult to plus into a wrong
connector somewhere, which causes a lot of problems with other rigs.

I would use an ohmmeter and make sure that the audio cable is working. There is no other explanation
beyond a wrong K3 setting, but you already checked that.

These were used for audio in the first version, but no one apparently used it for this purpose and it
made more sense to change these in the newer version.

I do not understand what you mean by try another solution for FT8. All you need to do is to assign
the sound card in your PC to both the RRC Micro client and WJST and you can do FT8. Just make sure
that Windows and other sounds are turned off.

Configuration of Routers, Firewalls, etc / Re: Local network firewall problem

If I understand you correctly, then you can reach your RRC from outside of your network using the DDNS address and not inside.

This is a sign of a good router which should block the outside address from working inside of your network.

You must use the radio RRC's internal IP instead, e.g.198.168.xx.yyy.

This is on the RemoteRig web page http://www.remoterig.com/wp/?page_id=28 and
http://www.remoterig.com/wp/?page_id=3376

One is used for PTT and the other for a CW paddle.

« on: 2019-05-19, 13:34:34 »

Hi Dave,

I highly suggest that you change port 80 to something else for port conflict and security reasons. Then access it just using
the DDNS address followed by the port with a colon separating them.

If you want my networking checklist that explains all of this, drop me a short mail to dj0qn (at) darc (dot) de and I will
send it to you.

Correct, everyone has a TS-480 panel and RRC and/or a K3/0 and RRC. We have
both rigs running in both stations.

There are stations with many operators. I am on two with over 12.

You only need a means to have the two coordinate. Otherwise, the other op
will get a busy signal if the station is in use.

Antonio

What are you using as the web page's port number? Did you change it from 80 to another number?

Hi Charles,

I am not sure what you mean by "nothing seems to work". I know there are some bugs in the
RemoteRig implementation. If you search the forum for N1MM and Winkeyer, you will find some
information that may help you. Otherwise, maybe you can explain in more detail.

Did you try to use the USB COM port instead for CAT? Just curious.

Here you go, Jorge:

Note that if you don't mind an external device, you can use any WiFi extender that
has an ethernet port instead. They cost around $20. You would be able to use that in
public hotspots, where the internal one will not work.

Hi Charles,

I forgot about that. It only takes a minute to switch back to the USB cable. Give it a try yourself, you
already know how to set it up and change the stop bit. Apparently N1MM has a "feature" that defaults
to two stop bits instead of one.

Hi Charles,

Yes, I am still in Florida and can't leave for Germany until a bit later this summer.

It will be sometime between 1 and 5 pm my time, but will try as early as possible.
