Thinking about
the problem.....I used Revo Uninstall to remove an Acom program.
I think in the list of
"leftovers" was an important file for JTAlert. It wasn't
listed as such or I would have removed it before
deleting the other files. Any idea what I did wrong?
To answer your question, JTAlert 2.14.5 and WSJT 2.1.2 worked
perfectly.
Revo removing needed JTAlert files would not cause JTAlert to stop
receiving UDP data from WSJT-X, if anything it would produce a
critical error dialog from JTAlert which would subsequently close.
A rerunning of the JTAlert installer will restore any lost
files/directories.
There have not been any recent changes in how JTAlert receives
WSJT-X UDP traffic, internally 2.15.3 is exactly the same as
2.14.5.
The most likely cause is another application having exclusive
access to the WSJT-X UDP port (2237) or WSJT-X is running with
elevated privileges (set to run as administrator). There is never
any need to run WSJT-X elevated.
If you haven't done so already, perform a PC restart, especially
if your running Win10 as that is now the most common fix for
unexpected or changed behavior.
If you still have no success, use the "Help" (or "? ") ->
"Contact Support" menu, on the main JTAlert window, to send me
your JTAlert files for analysis.
