    Hugh, can you run a test on V1.8?  Not for making QSO's but just for testing.  You can even leave the RF power at Zero.

    I think this showed up a 1.9.

    Has happened to me a few times after extended periods of operating. Task manager the only way out.

    That's unfortunate. Maybe the 6700 has a different command set than the 6300.

    Doug,
      You will need a FlexVSP ( ssdrCAT) port configured for CAT and then use' PTT via CAT' in WSJT-X.

    Hugh,
      ALL, Flex 6000 series radios use the same CAT/ API command set

    Mine randomly does not go out of TX, but I think this is a WSJTx issue.   In order to fix it, you need to figure out how to make it happen all the time.  It is pretty hard to fix if you can't capture how it got there in the first place.

    Joe Taylor had announced a week or so back that ver 2.0 with enhancements and fixes is forthcoming around the first of the year.
    Stay tuned.

    Hi Doug, I have the same problem - here with WSJT-X stopping transmit from time to time, I'm running v1.9.1 with the Flexradio 6xxx CAT setting. Did using a TS-480 CAT port solve the problem for you?

    No clue really if this related, but I had this happen a few times with an older Win7 laptop. Once I moved to a Dell I7 with Win10 - that seemed to cure a lot of evils. Good luck ! 73 Jim, WQ2H
