Flrig will not connect to 7300 #26

Axtel4 commented 1 year ago

I am setting up a new machine with Linux Mint 21.2 and 73Linux. When configuring Flrig, I get the following message: Cannot open /dev/serial/by-id/usb-Silicon_Labs_CP2102_USB_to_UART_Bridge_Controll_IC-7300_02008737-if00-port0

After selecting the above USB device in the Configuration menu and clicking Init, I get the following message: Transceiver not responding! - with a number of options to try.

I have double checked the Baud Rate, and other radio settings. I able to receive audio and correctly decode FT8 from the radio to Fldigi after manually setting the radio frequency and mode.

lsusb and dmesg shows the Silicon Labs device.

Flrig / Fldigi works correctly on my R-Pi 3 HamPi with the same radio settings.

I am at a loss as to what is keeping Flrig from connecting to the radio.

Thanks in advance.

By chance did you install the GPS software? If so, run cat /etc/default/gpsd and post the results.

Axtel4 commented 1 year ago

No GPS. I have a minimum installation at this point, Chirp, Fldigi, Flrig, Flwrap, Hamlib, JS8, and WSJTX.

Update and maybe a clue, I tried CHIRP and received the following message: [Errno 13] could not open port/dev/ttyS0:[Errno 13] Permission denied: 'dev/ttyS0'

maybe not in the dialout & tty groups? Run groups and see if "dialout" is in that list. If not, add your user to the dialout group. Same applies to "tty"

That was it. I'll leave this here in case someone else runs into this issue.

I added my username to the group with: sudo usermod -a -G dialout $USER

Thank you for the help.
