WSJT no go

Post by VK4KL »

Having problems with my install of WSJT 1.5.0 Hope someone can help
I used WSJT 2 days ago just to decode signals (TX disabled) and everything worked OK. Went to use the program this morning and the program wont work for me. I get the following errors, see pictures.
I have uninstalled the program, reinstalled, uninstalled downloaded the program again, deleted the folder the program was installed in run as administrator but I get the same error every time. I have also removed all the entries for WSJT in the registry.

Any ideas ?
Was looking forward to using JT65 today but doesn't look like its going to happen

Hello Adrian. Sorry, I cant help with these errors. I cannot see them. No matter what I do the images are just too small and I cant read the text.

However, instead of using that particular piece of software, you could try another to see if it works. I use WSJT-X version 1.4.0-rc2 (downloadable from the wsjt site) and I also use JTalert (from http://www.hamapps.com)

This might get you up and running until someone with better eyes than me can look at your error messages.

my bad I have reduced the files a little too much.
stupid thing is after trying for nearly 2 hours to get the program to work I walked away for about an hour or so come back ready to throw the laptop through the window its actually decoding and all menu buttons are not greyed out.
I will investigate further.

:D :D :D I have a laptop like that and the only reason it has so far survived is because evert time I get ready to heave it a little voice says "think of the cost of replacing that window". :beer:

Worked ok for a little while. Now txing whenever it feels like it. Tried to answer a cq call, all good, then the laptop started txing while the original station is answering and I noticed the next time D4 updated the time it was 5 seconds out. D4 is set to update every 10 minutes. Will try another version of JT software

Hi Adrian, I had a somewhat similar problem yesterday with WSJT-X but it had nothing to do with the program!
I was running another app which used the same virtual com port as WSJT but I forgot to exit before firing up WSJT. :crazy:
Once I closed all apps and restarted the laptop (to reset com port defaults etc.) all was good.
