TGXL - Error "NO PTT IN"

in Tuner Genius XL

Hi there,

The day I have to send back my 6600 for repair I receive my TGXL and Antenna Genius (SO2R)... Thanks Murphy. I "wire" everything they way it should (outside in)

Antenna 1-3 into the Antenna Genius

AG A to Antenna A port on the TGLX to the Antenna port A on the PGXL to coax run up to the shack

AG B to Antenna B port on the TGLX to the Antenna port B on the PGXL to coax run up to the shack.

Coax run A is plugged into my backup radio. PGXL stays in standby mode.

TGXL port A is selected and Antenna Genius port a is selected.

I add 20 watts of RF and get an error saying "no ptt in" on the the TGXL display... even in bypass mode. But also in OPR mode.

    Your TG-XL Utility (under Settings-> FlexRadio tab) PTT Source set to LAN?

    I open ticket 2 weeks ago for exactly the same error and so far did not received solution or commitment. Discovered issue during CQWW DX SSB Contest, it is intermittent and I lost quite a few QSO when had to release and hit the foot switch again to reactivate TX.

    I did not have chance to test it in other modes for a long period of time to see if it the intermittent interrupts.

    @kf4HR, No. The Flex settings are disabled as right now my 6600 is in the shop. So I was hoping to RF sense the signal coming from an 857.

    There is no RF sense substitute for PTT. You must have a PTT live or LAN connection from the radio

    @W2PP So I re read the manual and I glossed over this portion above (different ways to set up PTT) and went straight to this portion below and assumed it would just work.

    thanks for your help. I'll just wait until I get my Flex back.
