Flex 8600 & Slice Master v0.11.0 Not Working

W2ECK

New Flex 8600 owner ( back to Flex after 2 yr hiatus) and can not get the current version of Slice Master to work for me. Running SSDR v4.0.1 on Win11 PC. One of the reasons ( lots of others) I came back to Flex was it's ability to integrate so nicely with CWSkimmer. So frustrating problem.

Have tried uninstalling SM and reloading- no joy. I keep getting a msg at bottom of SM window AttributeError: Traceback (most recent call last) and if I go into the SM log, it lists:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "flex\flex.py", line 1309, in publish_updates
File "cwskimmer.py", line 511, in daxiq_stream_cb
File "cwskimmer.py", line 310, in local_streams
File "flex\radio.py", line 629, in local_iq_streams
File "flex\flex.py", line 308, in getattr

Any suggestions on a work around or a solution? I have tried contacting K1DBO but no responses back.

If you just want a skimmer have you tried SDC, no need for Slice Master as its all done through an API.

Great support from Yuri and others here on the community.

Hi Paul, SliceMaster does not work with the newer Flex versions. I don't know if Don plans on updating SliceMaster or not.

I switched over to SDC like Rich did and it works great. Here is a link:

Well guess I to will have to make the switch also. Thanks for suggestions. Hope learning curve not too steep.
