windows 10 update & Dax

W2ECK · July 2019

After the latest round of win 10 updates (1903) within the last week, I noticed that WSJTX was not working and looked thru some old posts in the Community to find a solution. I saw that some folks had to change the settings in Windows sound back. So in the Win 10 Sound Control Panel I changed the DAX Audio and TX settings fm 24bit 2 channel 24,000 hz back to 2 channel, 24 bit, 192,000 hz on the Playback & Recording side. That cured the RX/Decoding side of things. but was getting no power out, so changed back and Tx worked. I do notice that the Tx spike in the Spectrum scope is smaller then I am accustomed to before the Win 10 update.

So I guess what I am asking or trying to confirm is what are the proper levels/settings for DAX on both the Playback and Recording side of the Windows Sound Control Panel for DAX audio, TX and IQ ?

No the bitrate stuff doesn't really matter and stop it from working.
Windows either one or the other or sometimes both (Renames the ports or breaks the drivers).

If you get a error that pops up when stating a program that uses the DAX drivers then you know that probably one type or the other driver is broken
TX DAX
RX DAX
DAXIQ

DON'T do the complete uninstall link at the top of this post.

Here is a resent post for the DAX ports renaming Problem
