Ricky Dalton only becomes active AFTER Tradecraft starts.

After that, yeah, you can find him wandering all throughout the Commonwealth.

So Ricky's not the problem. Having analyzed the Internet, a lot of players face this problem. There was no solution in any source. The players also switched to a "clean client .

Something prevents you from starting the quest, and no matter in what sequence the other quests were completed. Perhaps this is due to the fact that at the beginning of the game I entered the switchboard through a cafe, but immediately ran out of there.

Do a simple test - no mods (or at the very least no content mods).

a)  Leave Vault 111 proper

b)  Open console and type "coc oldnorthchurchext" (no quotes, just the text).

c)  Deal with the ghouls and open the "decoder ring" proper - don't use a mod or console to bypass it.

d)  Talk with Desdemona till the point Road to Freedom completes.

e)  Talk to Deacon to start.

------

Again, no content mods.     I used my Weapons Testing profile to test it - no issues.    Just added a pimped out SOCOM pistol.

No issues.

------

If you think visiting the Donut Shop prior is causing an issue (it isn't) - then coc to the donut shop, then coc to the old north church.

------

Lastly, do NOT use the Console to do anything with the quest.

If you still have the issue then post your mod list you have active.    Basically you don't want any mod active that modify the Switchboard or the Railroad.
