    You will need SmartSDR CAT and DAX running on the PC that is running WSJTx so that it can receive and transmit to the radio.  Install SmartSDR to also get SmartSDR CAT and DAX.

    You can continue to use your Maestro as you do now.

    Hi Joe

    I'm not sure where you are stuck, but do this:
    • Download and install - you done that.
    • At least once, start SmartSDR and connect to the radio - check the SmartSDR Manual starting on Page 12.  You can download it from the same place.  Do not worry about anything that says SmartLink at this time as you are not doing that.  Keep reading to page 20.
    • Also check that 2 other programs are running, SmartSDR CAT and SmartSDR DAX.
    Once that is done...

    The easy way to configure WSJTx is to run SliceMaster.   Have a look at this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sj85yjVcTTk
