Wfview and WSJT-X connectivity

Installation Help
1

Hello,
I spent most of the weekend trying to get Wfview to play well with WSJT-X. I really wanted to figure this out myself, but in the end, my minimal knowledge of Linux failed me. I think I’ve been going around in circles and probably wouldn’t recognize the solution now if I saw it :wink:.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance! - Steve

This is what I’m seeing:

Starting Wfview

  • Configured as server
  • I can access Wfview from the external internet
  • I can change frequency on radio from Wfview
  • Radio can change frequency in Wfview
  • Wfview can power off and power on radio
  • Wfview manually turn on PTT and turn off PTT

Starting WSJT-x

  • I can see WSJT-x waterfall
  • I can receive and decode FT8 transmissions
  • A frequency change in Wfview changes Frequence in WSJT-s change frequency of radio
  • When trying to transmit the following rig control error happens

Hamlib error: read_string_generic(): RX 8 characters, direct=1*
0000 52 50 52 54 20 2d 31 0a RPRT -1.

In WSJT-x settings radio tab

  • Test CAT works
  • Test PTT generates the same error

WSJT-X settings
Radio: IC-7300

  • Rig: Hamlib NET rogcti (Hamlib version: 4.5.5 Apr 05 11:43:08Z 2023 SHA=6eecd3)
  • Network Server: 127.0.0.1:4532
  • PTT Method: CAT
  • Transmit Audio Source: Front/Mic
  • Split Operation: Fake it

Audio:

  • Input: alsa_input.usb-Burr-Brown_from_T1_USB_Audio_CODEC-00.analog-stereo (Mono)
  • Output: alsa_output.usb-Burr-Brown_from_T1_USB_Audio_CODEC-00.analog-stereo (Stereo)

Rig settings

  • Radio: IC-7300
  • CI-V Baud Rate: 19200
  • CI-V Address: 94h
  • CI-Vtransceive: ON
  • CIV USB _ Remote Transceive Address: 00hCI-V Output (for ANT):OFF

Some terminal commands I tried

  • sudo netstat -lp
  • sudo netstat -tulnp
  • sudo ss -ltnp
  • ls -l /dev/serial/by-id/
  • ps aux | grep tty
  • ls -l /dev/ttyUSB0
  • cat /dev/ttyUSB0
  • ls -l /dev/tty*
  • ls /dev/pts/
  • sudo dmesg | grep tty
  • ps aux | grep socat
  • lsof | grep /dev/tty
  • cat /etc/udev/rules.d/*.rules | grep tty
  • sudo netstat -tulnp | grep LISTEN
  • ps aux | grep -E ‘WFview|wsjtx’
  • sudo netstat -tulnp | grep -E ‘WFview|wsjtx’
  • cat ~/.config/WSJT-X.ini | grep -i ‘network|port|rig’
  • cat ~/.config/WFview/WFview.conf | grep -i
  • ps aux | grep rigctld
  • cat wsjtx_syslog.log | tail -50

Output of above commands
sudo netstat -lp

Hi Stephen.

Before trying anything else, I would recommend updating wfview from the current master branch.

Over the weekend this was updated to v2.04 which includes numerous fixes for rigctld and has been tested with various versions of wsjt-x.

Simply run the build script again to get the latest.

Phil
