Hi Dale,

Can you please share with us the exact version of ARDOP you are running, and the log output?

Thanks!

Okay. setting up pat on pi 4B 8 gb with 128 gb micro sd card

with a signalink with no rig control

Pat down load V2.12.1

Installed: "Ardop Modem and GUI for Ardop Modem"

Pat down load V2.12.1

I start ARDOP Modem

Box opens up "The ARDOP Modem FAILED to Start"

Ardop Tool: ARDOP OFF

Note: To make sure of the signaling is WORKING i did run WSTJ and I was able to make the signalink operate.

I'm I suppose to run a additional program?

Dale,

The error seem to suggest that ARDOP won't start properly, but without the log output from the ARDOP software it is hard to tell what's wrong. I don't know how you can retrieve that log when you start ARDOP using Pat Menu.

I think you might have better luck getting help in https://groups.io/g/KM4ACK-Pi, as it seems this might be specific to the Pat Menu scripts. I am not that familiar with their inner workings.
