  2. No WSJT-X transmission with FT-891

Thanks for the response Tim.

I tried resetting my radio and also reflashed the DRAWS image. I've confirmed that I have the same menu settings as you, and that I'm using the left channel.

I've included a screenshot of the DRAWS Manager settings and have attempted sending both prior to and after configuration. I've also confirmed that Direwolf is not running.

My FT-891 PTT is still triggered but the power output never changes from zero while transmitting. I've also confirmed that I've not been heard on PSKReporter.

I've tried both 6 pin cables, in case one was defective, and both 6 pin ports on the DRAWS hat. The only thing I've yet to try is to swap out the USB cable.

Following that I'm all out of ideas.

Cheers,

Matt,
You may want to reset the radio.
I have done that in the past when problems arise.
I use the included menu settings after I reset the radio.

Have you checked the draws manager and make sure AF (pin5) for your channel.
Also make sure Direwolf is not running 
cd
cd bin
sudo su
./ax25-stop
