Updated to v 4.1.3, now WSJT-X crashes SSDR when changing bands

DH2ID

Hi all,I had no problems with v 2.12.1 and WSJT-X (exept the occasional BSOD with DAX),but now I find that changing bands from WSJT-X crashes SSDR and the Flex.They come back with time, but the Flex starts clicking and changing frequency.I have to reset to factory settings, reload profiles and then the Flex works again. My way around this is to use profiles for every band and switch that way.

Has anyone experienced this? Is it a hamlib error with v 4.1.3?

Hello Harald,

thank you for your message. The same crashes occurr with SSDR for iOS and iPadOS!

I have opened a ticket with Flex, athough WSJT-X is not mantained by Flex. Vy 73 and merry XMAS, Alex - DH2ID

Having the same issue here Alex. Flex 8600, SSDR 4.1.3 on Windows 11 Pro 25H2, WSJT-x 3.0.0-rc1. Changing bands with WSJT-x triggers some sort of CAT storm with frequency rapidly changing between the old band and new band very rapidly. TGXL is trying to keep up with the rapid changes as well….lots of relays chunking very fast. Have to reboot the 8600 and PC to recover. I'm going to do a clean install of everything and see if that heals it.

73,

Thanks a lot, Pat! You made my day, as I thought I was the only one with these problems. I'm interested how you can solve the CAT storm! My way around this is the use of profiles for all digimodes and bands and switching this way using FRstack. Switching bands from SSDR for iOS and for iPadOS results also with crashes, which is a pity, as I like to work from my tablet…

Thank you again, and merry Christmas, Alex - DH2ID

Before you open a support ticket, please do a reset on the radio. The directions are in the release notes.

If that does not resolve the issue, then open a support ticket.

Thank you, Mike. I aways do a reset as I follow the instructions to the dot, which did not help. My ticket is open, but WSJT-X being a third-party software I'm not really hopeful. I wish I could go back to V 2.12.1 which worked just fine.

Pat W5VY wrote that band changes trigger some sort of a CAT storm, which coincides with my thoughts about a hamlib problem.

Hi Alex

I wonder if there are some settings that are unique to your setup. I do not see the same issue and I am active on the AU-520 (same as an 8000) and my 6600M none stop. And, I am running on 4.1.3.

I would recommend you spend some time and compare you setup with others and see if there is something unique. I mention this as not everyone is experiencing the same issue.

BTW, I have seen issue where using SliceMaster can slow down the network commands. I wonder if this related.
