NOTE: VARA HF 4.9.0.0 works just fine and controls via cat without issue.
NOTE: FT-857 is configured with front mic CAT because rear CAT is being used for FC-30 control.
NOTE: Config worked under WSJT-X 2.6.1 in June and was not updated. Currently fails. Have not used WSJTX-X since that time. After initial failure, upgraded WSJT-X to 3.0.2 and same failure occur
red. Logs taken in diagnostic mode of WSJTX-X 3.0.2 and are attached.
