Hi I have no problem using a new FT-991A with Windows 10 desktop system and programs like FLRig/FLDigi or WSJT-X. No problems at all. On a MacBook Pro with the latest MacOS (whatever animal they call it now, it automatically updates itself), even if I install the drivers from Silicon Labs: https://www.silabs.com/products/development-tools/software/usb-to-uart-bridge-vcp-drivers ....I find that on the MacBook I can only receive the audio on the waterfall display. I cannot transmit (no keying of the transmitter, no RF output). I have no CAT control, no synchronization of mode or frequency changes and FLRig complains there is a communications error. If I try to run WSJT-X or FLDigi without FLRig, the problem remains unchanged. If I disconnect the 991A from the MacBook, plug the USB cable into the Win 10 box, everything digital runs perfectly, so I can't condemn the USB cable or the radio. Has anyone encountered such problems and discovered a solution? If this virus stuff lets go, I'm hoping to take the 991A and the laptop up north for a cottage rental time along with a Buddipole and see what I can see up there. Although I can still work phone, it would be nice to see what digital modes can be received up north. 73s,
I found a solution elsewhere which seems to help. I can now have CAT control over the 991A with the MacBook. It seems to be a problem with a driver update from Silicon Labs. Information in this link: https://www.silabs.com/community/in...latest_cp210x_driver523wontinstallonmaco-HPO2 73s
I am having the same initial issue as you were, even after using the new driver. Its strange since I can manually tun the radio to the data frequencies and WSJT will decode the messages. The codec is working fine for audio input and output. I dont get it. I have the exact opposite problem when using raspberry pi. I have CAT control but I dont have the Audio Codec. Its really strange. Do you have any suggestions? I am running OS X 10.15.4 73
Regarding Raspberry Pi, I'm sorry. I don't think I can be of help. That's another universe of computing. 73s
