With slots, having rig control is a *real* nice to have.

@irad d sorry, I set all of the options to be identical. Rig being an ic 7200, the address as 94, and that the ptt was also over the same Com port. Until I made those changes, I had the exact same issue as you, running the same 1.78b firmware. It would properly release ptt twice during negotiation, then never release it again, having to shut the rig down. Now all is well.

I had the identical issues today... and also found the solution that worked for me. Xiegu G90 & Winlink Express – OH8STN Ham Radio
