Audio Tx is named plughw: card=interface DEV=0 Audio RX is named plughw:
card=interface DEV=1
When I use CW-L and CAT, every frequency change via CAT
switches to CW-U. Why?
That is a consequence of the used FT817 CAT protocol emulation. The FT817 CAT
protocol know two CW modes, CW and CW-R. On a real FT817 this is used to received
CW in the two side bands and the user can control which is mapped to CW (USB by
default) and CW-R (LSB by default). The mcHF maps CW to CW-USB and CW-R to CW-
LSB. I.e. in order to keep the mcHF in CW-L, you have to tell your CAT program to use
CW-R instead of CW. How to do that depends on the program itself.
WSJT-X sound does not work with Ubuntu/Xenial 16.04, - (fldigi
works well)
Add the following two lines into /etc/pulse/default.pa and reboot:
load-module module-alsa-source device=plughw:2,1
load-module module-alsa-sink device=plughw:2,0
(Here the mcHF is my soundcard number #2)
Then in wsjtx, select:
Input: alsa_input.plughw_2_1 (Left)
Output: alsa_output.plughw_2_0 (Both)
McHF driver & Windows 8 64bit
I discovered that Windows 8 64bit (and maybe Windows 10 64bit) has the “driver
signature enforcement” that permits to install only drivers with Microsoft signature. So,
following the procedure in this page is not possibile if you have a operative system with
64bit. Before of trying it, you have to remove the signature enforcement, following, for
example, the procedure written in this page:
https://www.howtogeek.com/167723/how-
to-disable-driver-signature-verification-on-64-bit-windows-8.1-so-that-you-can-install-
unsigned-drivers/
Only after have removed the signature enforcement I succeded to
connect the mcHF with the virtual port on the pc. Note: removing signature
enforcement instead is not necessary for bootloader and firmware updating.
