David Croyle on Nostr: My Mac running WSJ-TX is annoying in that every time I reboot, there is a high chance ...
My Mac running WSJ-TX is annoying in that every time I reboot, there is a high chance (but not 100%) that the Serial Port has changed name, and so needs to be manually re-selected in the WSJTX prefs in order to work. Why it randomly switches names I don't know, and why WSJTX can't figure it out I don't know either, but it's something I have to deal with every day that I wish I didn't.
