JTAlert/WSJT-X Transmit Flag

edited December 2019 in SmartSDR for Windows
When using multiple instances of WSJT-X and JTAlert my transmit flag is not passing back and forth as it once did.  Something has changed and I can't find the problem child. Any ideas on this would be greatly appreciated!  73

    Yes, everything works fine in single band mode.  When going into 2 band mode I have to manually click on the transmit flag for the appropriate band I just clicked on to receive on.

    No, i can receive just fine with both windows open. The transmit will not switch to the band when I click on the window/band to work the station. Dax is setup on receive channel 1 for slice 1 and channel 2 for slice 2. TX is the same for both windows as I have a 6400.

    I typically have FRStack running but have shut it off until I resolve this issue. FRStack has recently had multiple upgrades. Could it be that I need a third party program for the transmit to move with the click??  There are lots of options in FRStack that have to do with slices and transmit flags working hand in hand. The question would be can SmartSDR, SmartCAT, JTAlert and WSJT-X ALONE allow for the transmit to move on spot click?

    Yes, I have restarted and rebooted SmartCAT many times. But I am going to change all the settings under 4990 and 4992 and then put them back to make sure they are set good.

    Would someone clarify this question relating to my issue. If you have the "Call 1st" box unchecked in JTAlert and you double click on a call does your transmit flag move to the correct band with multiple instances of WSJT-X open?  I thought this was my previous behavior but I could be wrong? If I click on the Enable TX button in JTAlert the transmit flag does move to the correct band.  But the obvious problem with this is timing for antenna switching. On 20-6 meters this is not a problem because of my hexbeam. It is an issue on 30-160 though. Please advise. 73
