Also if you're using TCP for CAT, sometimes it loses connection between WSJT-X and the radio. You need to restart WSJT-X in that case.

In your transmit panel, next to the mic level controls, etc. do you have the DAX Button turned ON?
In the Transmit panel, are you seeing any deflection on the TX Audio level meter?
In the DAX Control Panel, are you seeing any deflection of the meter in DAX TX Audio?
You might need to check the appropriate sliders for those inputs....

tried keying with mike and no change
test cat and ptt green and red in WJST-X
did see 5 contacts in pskrept but no deflection on any meter and no qso in wsjt-x

it is strange I did see that about 5 monitors heard my signal but it is not consistent; power is up to 50%; still no qso's
I assume that the tx bandwidth refers to the filter which is at 3k
when I enable tx in wsjt-x I see a elevation of the spectrum signal but still absolutely nothing on the meters
tried the mic and see that a signals shows on the level meter and on the spectrum but nothing on the rf or swr meters
thanks to all for your suggestions

I use low-cut =0 and high-cut=3000.
Also check the power output slider on the right hand side of the WSJT-Xscreen.
In your WSJT-x File>settings>audio panel, what two audio devices have you selected for receive and transmit audio?

not currently at pc but power slider in WSJT-X is at max setting
audio is dax rx1 in and dax tx out
on dax control panel both lights are blue and say streaming; rx shows a signal but never saw a signal on tx
will check the filter setting later at home
thanks

Agree that is time to open a ticket?

Then used ssb phone 40m and saw my transmit signal on the spectrum, no indication on the rf power and could not raise a CQ.
i think that something must be wrong with the tx section since it is acting intermiitently and only at beginning of a FT8 session.
Do not have another HF receiver to verify the signal

80 watts maximum with a low swr at 1.3

1.On FT8 setup click (FILE) ->Settings->Frequencies
a) The USA is in Region 2 and the "Frequency Calibration" may need to be calibrated. My Flex- 6700 was off by 1,00Hz:
b) I found that it was hard to make contact until I move 1Hz up with the Radio VFO or by
adjusting the FT8->Tx 1Hz lower.
That solved my problems

To the best of my knowledge, as long as your RX or TX is in the 3khz audio passband the actual VFO reading does not matter.
The radio has actual calibration in it with SmartSDR.
Even being off frequency by that much will not affect the ability to complete a QSO. Time drift will if you clock is not set correctly.

With the corrections to FT8 freq adjustment of 1 Hz is making it possible to make more connections. I don't know what changed or happened; since this happened after the last hurricane. One of my home computer was charred who knows what else? But, I am glad that I am back to normal. The Rx is set to 3kHz

When I call you on FT8, you have no idea what frequency I am on. I don't send you that frequency in my transmission.
As a known example, my friend's TS480 is way out of frequency alignment (at least 300hz on 160m). He knows the approximate value and just ensure FT8 audio is in his audio passband. He's made hundreds of QSO's like this. His VFO is no where close to what he is actually transmitting on.
I hope I understand what you are explaining with your 1hz error. At least, that is how I am interpreting it.
