Dual Watch vs Dual Receive?
Only one receiver on your rig? Try "Dual Watch" to monitor two channels at the same time. While not true dual-receive, you can use it to keep your radio on APRS-packet, while regularly checking the local voice repeater every couple of seconds. Just to be safe, when doing lots of APRS messaging, turn off dual watch to be sure you're not sending packets to the Repeater -- don't be that guy.

    the dual watch is a great feature that monitors 2 bands / channels jumping from one to the other while having 2 receivers is a whole other world, the convenience of a full duplex cross band or satellite traffic with uplink and downlink in the same radio ... I argued with many friends because they said they had "dual band" radios when they were "duo band" and then when we did the tests they understood the real difference and additional convenience ... my old and trusty tmd700 one side is active in aprs and the other in 70cm for local traffic ... in the car the same, an old but excellent thd7 as aprs tracker and the other band for chatter on repeaters!!! 73 by iz3qvb

    Curious, and have been trying to figure it out for a few days now with no luck so hopefully there is an easier answer if I ask. To start LOVE this and appreciate all the work you all have done and makes life nice that I can run WSJT-x from my couch upstairs while spending time with my wife rather than in front of my rig. But the question, is it possible to connect to FLRig over a local network and not just on local host (127.0.0.1:12345)? Would love to point a wsjt-x on my Mac to the digirig running FLRig on a port, but am so far failing. Thanks to anyone who may have info and not be as new to this as I am...

      Possibly? or via rigctld, both are network-controlled. the question is how you'd get audio?

    The Pi loses network/WiFi connectivity whenever I plug in the small screen, any ideas on why this may be happening? WiFi works perfectly without the screen plugged in.

      That's a new one to me. Is the pi sitting on a static bag or conductive surface?

    Awesome videos! Your guitar bumpers are inspirational! Your attitude and eloquence makes me want to move back to California! Should I assume that the Yaesu FT-891 is a "Type B" even though it has a USB port? Though, I'll confess, I didn't see two different options on the 1.9.2 page...
