Hello to the group:
I am a proud owner of a new Argonaut V. This past weekend I hooked up a
serial
cable from my laptop to the rig, and the aux cable to the mic input and
speaker
output jacks on that laptop. The Argo instructions say that is all I need to
work
PSK31.
No problem running Ham Radio Deluxe to control the rig. Everything works FB.
I do
wish the Argonaut had an instruction for controlling volume from the
software.
However I can't get the PSK31 program that comes with HRD to reliably switch
the
Argo from RX to TX and back again. I selected "soundcard control of PTT" in
the
program. I'm trying to use the laptop soundcard to activate the rig's vox.
I have the
Argo VOX set for low gain and the ANTIVOX set high, as advised in the manual.
Most of the time, the TX putton on the PSK31 screen doesn't function.
Occasionally,
I've gotten it to key the rig to transmit and send my message. However, when
I
hit "escape", the Argo just "locks up" and won't switch back to receive (or
do anything, for that matter). I have to turn the Argo off and back on again
to reset it to get it to receive again.
Has anyone else experienced this? What's the fix? I may be making this more
difficult than need be. I'd like to hear what setup other Argo owners are
using to
run both Ham Radio Deluxe and PSK31 together.
TIA/73, Jim K5HO
