I recently got a DR-891 to experiment with JS8 call with my FT-891. Cables came super fast and look great. I have installed JS8 Call and all the driver on my Macbook. My issue is that when I try to test the Cat control, my computer gives me an error. “Rig Failure. Hamlib Error: IO error while opening connection to rig”. I have looked around and cant seem to find any help online with this issue on mac. Most of the troubleshooting for that error is also for other softwares and not JS8Call.
Were you able to get CAT control working with the radio connected to the computer directly (without Digirig involved)?
I was able to get a few steps further by removing all the drivers and devices from my computer, and reinstalling them one at a time. I haven’t tried connecting directly, but I was able to get CAT Control functioning using the Digirig, however I cannot tell what my current issue is because I not received any messages on JS8 Call despite having everything “working”. Im unsure if the Audio is not working, if JS8Call is just empty, or one of many other possible issues. I know its not the antenna because SSB has been just fine on RX & TX
With “listen” checkbox checked in settings for Digirig’s recording device, do you hear JS8Call traffic through your computer’s speakers?
