I've made a few tests more and found out that the strange behaviour is related to the noise in the received signal. When fldigi decodes a <BEL>i then pskmailserver prints out <SOH>vE681<EOT> activates PTT without sending any data and PTT stays activated until I pressed the TUNE or T/R button in fldigi. If i deactivate SQL in fldigi it happens more often than when SQL is turned on.

Rein, the CAT interface contains no VOX control circuit . PTT is generated by RTS signal from the integrated USB/RS232 converter ( FT232RL). It's connected with pin 3 of the ACC port at the IC706MKIIG. The transceiver CAT control is no problem, when I use the jpskmail 1.5.29 client with fldigi > 3.21.76. 73 Jürgen DL8JF Am 2013-11-16 11:21, schrieb Rein Couperus:Jürgen, how does the interface produce PTT?

Jürgen, how does the interface produce PTT? Via a VOX circuit in the interface? Or does the interface use the RS232 pins to make PTT? Rein EA/PA0R/P Gesendet: Freitag, 15. November 2013 um 15:47 Uhr Von: "Jürgen Fischer" <dl8jf@xxxxxxxxxxxx> An: pskmail@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Betreff: [pskmail] pskmail_server-2.1.n Test Hi, I've installed pskmail_server-2.1.n at a Debian 7.2 wheezy system, Kernel 3.2.51-1 64. for testing. It starts up so far and sends the APRS beacons via Internet. After a while it sends a APRS beacon via radio link as well but after this task has finished PTT shuts off for a few seconds and then PTT is aktivated again without sending any data. It don't shut off agin and stays aktivated until I press the "TUNE" button in fldigi twice.
