@Piciok @weinig Sieht man Euch auf der Ham Radio in Friedrigshafen? Pascale und ich sind die drei Tage am Stand der #IBFD und stellen unsere Transceiver-Steuerung auf Basis der #HamLib vor. Haben uns ja schon Jahre nicht mehr gesehen. #Ham #Amateurfunk #Blind #Accessibility #HamRadio2025 #FediHams #FediHamsFN

Then I found the windows implementation of #direwolf not satisfying as it doesn't work with #Hamlib, which forced me to use the DTR signal from one of my rig's virtual com port. Only the Linux implementation works with Hamlib.
So I had to switch to Linux and consider moving #Winlink as well which is developed only for windows. I tried some manual install in the past but didn't succeed.

But this time, I found ...

Hat jemand Lust mit mir an diesem Projekt weiterzuarbeiten? Https://github.com/do9re/midi2hamlib #amateurfunk #ham #blinde #blind #accessibility #midi #hamlib

This evening's 'simple' software design has taken a large detour via #hamlib and I'm now trying to work out how to implement a rotctld network equivalent in #esphome
Using an esprelay X4 board + switches + pos sensors pretty much covers my use case, but I also want remote NET (not usb or serial) control.

Ok everyone, the #Hamlib people have released v4.6.1 which reverts the change that broke compilation for lots of apps (except #fldigi whose author is massively on the ball) so look for it in your favourite packaging system soonish (unless you're running Debian <sigh>).

I seem to be seeing more #ham radio operators using a #Mac. This is awesome and with some luck we'll see more software authors supporting the Mac (like the excellent #fldigi, #hamlib and #YAAC software). For anyone interested there has been a ham-mac mailing list for years where Hams could talk about mac related topics. See https://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/ham-mac

Did the most recent #Linux Mint updates break the #hamlib rig control software? I have a desktop that I keep updated and an old MS Surface pro that has not been updated. CAT control still works on the Surface with wsjt-x and js8call, not with the updated desktop version. This is with the Hermes Lite 2.

Anyone familiar with the hamlib API? I have a question about it.

My code uses `rig_get_vfo` to get the current VFO (which I assume is the VFO used for rx, and maybe tx). I then call `rig_get_split_vfo`, pass in the "rx vfo" I just got and get the "tx vfo" as well as whether or not split is enabled.

Is this sane? It doesn't seem to work with *any* ICOM radios because those don't implement the get_vfo callback so I get `RIG_ENAVAIL`.

Hmmm...looking like its some interaction between RF GAIN knob and the S meter and possibly the auto tuner. Played with them until I could get the S meter giving me updated values via rigctl. Need to dig deeper, but this part of the pipeline (and AGC) has always been a creaky corner for me! #hamradio #hamlib

Weird issue with one of my hamlib / rigctl scripts. My s-meter seems stuck at "181" no matter what, rest of my rigctl works as expected, serial baud right, freq can be set, etc... radio and laptop have been dormant for 4 months or so, not sure what changed. need to see what got update behind the scenes... weird! #hamradio #hamlib

#hamradio is FUN!

@m0rpk You are right, it is not ready for contest.

But maybe, there is a way to insert the relevant data to your editor using #hamlib. :alex_thinking:

#GettingCloser on the #SatNOGS RF ground station for #satellites .

The Green Heron RT-21 Az/El rotator controller is different from many other rotators in that it has a separate USB port for Az and El. In other words, you plug in to the rotator with two USB cables for the Raspbery Pi.

Bits of it are in #hamlib , but I think it is only for other models.

Is there an (also open source) alternative to #HamLib ? Every time I try to use its API, I hit a bug. #HamRadio

#LY1BWB: a fully remote-controlled and #Linux based satellite VHF/UHF station in Vilnius, Lithuania, can be tuned in by anyone at http://sdr.vhf.lt. For #hamradio purposes, we only use free and open source software (FedoraOS, #hamlib, Gpredict, cwdaemon, qsstv, pulseaudio, ...). En route to #fosdem2020, I have remotely downloaded this gem while in an airport lounge:

Always have used openGEO ecosystem when it comes to GIS/RS design and dev. Fan of #OZ9AEC - gpredict creator, one of very few HAM who strongly advocates free software.

Even with #Hamlib, GNU/Linux - Free sw/hw ecosystem laks necessary tools for Amateur Radio. Although within past few years SDR tools have been in rise - lots need to be done in areas merging radio and gis.

Begin once member of local community, its sad to see ham's using prop. tools mostly.

In this episode: an in-depth look at the wonder of hamlib, the software that binds applications to amateur radio hardware.

It's cross platform, small and actively developed.
