Kenwood TS-480 and Digirig. Launching Kenwoos ARCP-480 software immediately triggers transmit on radio. Only way to stop it is shut down radio or software. The com port is configured with Flow control set to None. ARCP connection setup has correct com port configured and xmit control set to PTT. Am I missing a setting somewhere? Would like to save my settings but for the radio but can’t do it while in transmit.

Thanks John K0JHL
