DSDPlus DSDPlus won't start

[garys]

Thanks. This brings up a second issue (of course). I can't remember how to access the menu. If it turns out I can't access the menu for some reason, then I think I have larger issue. I wonder if I should drop in the last good version of DSDPlus that I had even if it's from 2023?

Make sure you review the section in the Notes file: "Using DSD+ with external signal source" and make sure it's not set to do that. That option is used when you want to use a SDR program like SDR++ to hunt down signals and then use DSD+ to decode. I do this sometimes and have to change back to using FMPA for trunking. Can't remember what's it's called but it's in the same menu area of DSD+ as the external signal source.

The menu is available by default on the newer stuff. You should be able to click on INPUT, OUTPUT, CTRL, etc. and should be able to have a pull-down menu.

Here is a SS, as they say a picture is worth a thousand words ;-)

Just updated my post with a SS

I am not seeing any of that. I wonder if there was a problem with the download and files go corrupted.

Is there any chance you aren't running Fast Lane at all? Is there any chance you are running the nearly decade old software right off of www.dsdplus.com ?

It's fixed. You aren't going to believe I could be so dumb, but I was. I dropped the new DSDPlus.exe into the wrong directory.

It's only third on the list of dumbest things I did last week, which is kind of sad. Now I just have to clean up some minor stuff and get back trying to sort out the trunk system.

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions and help.
