I have made many attempts to set the FT8 emission. All descriptions I found on the internet regarding this TRX are based on the inclusion of USB VOX. However, I wanted to start transmission via PTT and not USB VOX. Finally, after many attempts, I was able to set parameters so that the transmission would take place via PTT.
Connection to the computer only via a USB cable. System macOS Mojave.
Before connecting the cable, of course, you must install a USB driver.
Another USB driver is intended for the macOS system, as shown by the default (Windows only) Kenwood website. It's easy to find.
