PTT Lock Problem
I have PTT Lock in the Cluster settings tab checked to solve a temporary problem. It works fine if one instance is connected and the other isn't doing anything. PTT is disabled as long as the other instance is connected/transmitting and is enabled when both are free.
If instance 2 is handling a contact, instance 1 is locked. But if you change bands in instance 1 during the contact on 2, it counts down the beacon, then pauses it as I would expect. But when 2 is clear it does not release the PTT disabled though the warning text above it does clear. I have to uncheck the PTT disabled manually.
Defender flagging VARAC ver 15.018 false positive
Hello, I'm downloading from official site.
MS defender blocks before download completes. The detection is Trojan:win32/wacatac.B!ml. Is this a known false positive? If yes, is there a checksum or updated installer? Thank you! 73/Steve
VarAC is thoroughly scanned with professional-grade antivirus and security tools before every release, following industry-standard practices used across the high-tech industry.
If you encounter an antivirus alert, it is a false positive. You can safely proceed with the installation.
73s!
Discord group
is there still a discord server for VarAC
negative and it hs been removed from the next version. Too many hams whining about it so it was removed.

I have additional info on this. Three instances running.
Instance 1, FT-710(HF) idle, no traffic or connection, PTT Lock enabled
Instance 2, FT-991A(HF) idle, no traffic or connection, PTT Lock enabled
Instance 3, Anytone UV5888 II(2m), no traffic or connection, PTT Lock not enabled.
A station connects to instance 2 to send email. Instance 1 checks "PTT Disabled" and shows "Instance 2 is busy." While Instance 2 is busy, instance 1 gets an incoming connection request which goes unanswered. Instance 2 completes its transaction and clears. Instance 1 clears the "Instance 2 is busy" indicator, but "PTT Disabled" stays checked. Manually removing the check from the "PTT Disabled" returns normal operation.
I have turned on debug to see if I can capture more data.
