Xiegu G90 - WSJTX - Test PTT Transmitter Sticks Fails Test

Pulling my hair out here. I have gone through just about every forum I can find and I can’t find a solution that works. I am using digirig with flrig version 2.0.05. The radio receives signals into WSTJx, but I can’t transmit anything out.

When I press the Test-PTT button in the setting, or the transmit button I get an error seen in the attached picture below, and the transmitter stays keyed up and won’t unkey.


The RF power kicks out Digirig’s USB connection.
There is either RF in the shack or unbalanced antenna using Digirig cabling as counterpoise. In either case improving your antenna system will fix this problem. You can work around it by chocking RF. See sticky PTT section of the troubleshooting guide for additional diagnostics and solutions.

Yes, thank you. That did it. I bought a shielded USB cable and put Ferrite beads on either end. This solved the issue
