RCA TX1 Won't persist

K1ESE

On startup, the remote 6300 has RCA TX1 disabled.  I enable it.  If I change bands I have to enable the TX1 line each time and if I go back to the first band, it is again disabled.

I have to enable the TX1 line every time I change bands.

I have tried to use the default transmit profile, save to a different profile, and save global profiles with no success.

With the contest starting tomorrow evening I don't want to have to enable TX1 with every band change.

I am thinking there is some setting that is wrong.  The 6300 is barefoot, no DDUtil or other third party app running.  No logger running.

I enabled TX1 on 20 meters.  I saved the profile.  I went to 40m and enabled TX-1 and saved the profile.  I went to 20 meters and TX-1 was DISABLED.  I went to 40m and TX-1 was DISABLED.

I did this with several TX and Global profiles. Change bands, enable TX-1, save profile, retry and whenever I changed bands, TX-1 was DISABLED.

That's when I came here to find help.

Did you push the Load button after Save?

Silly question perhaps, but (in your example) you don't indicate that after going back to 40M you load the 40M profile. Are you loading the profile you saved when you go back to 40M?

I'm not currently near my radio so I can't answer your questions. Hopefully someone can be of more assistance.

Hi folks, I have had a similar issue. It turned to be due to too many overlaping profiles that got mixed up somehow. Deleting and clearing up profiles solved the issue. Perhaps this is not valid in your case. Tx1 enabled is connected per band. If you change band it may not persist. In SO2R operating this is essential and you need to define per band what Tx should be enabled or not. At least this is how I have gotten a SO2R remote set up working with two amps per individual band and individual Tx power level.

Hi Steve - here is what I would try. This is the scorched earth approach, which isn't canon. But before that...

First, try resetting the radio. from a start, hold the button until it blinks white. After it resets and boots, see if the radio has tx persistence.  I had a problem with not transmitting on 20 meters once, and it fixed that right off.

If that doesn't work, a total reinstall of SSDR, starting with using Revo uninstaller. The free version will work FB. Unistall, then run the deep scan for leftover files and settings. **** it all, from SSDR, the DAX and CAT programs and FlexVSP.
note: after uninstalling, the flex software will tell you you need to restart the computer - don't do that until the deep scan and removal is over.

But - I suspect that the reset of the radio will fix your issue and you won't have to do anything else. Let me know.

Unfortunately, RESET didn't work.  The radio is at the remote site and there was no time before the contest to reinstall everything.

Instead, we wired the ACC TX relay to the amp and that worked all weekend.  I have opened a Help Desk ticket.

Thanks,
John
