A [Gqrx](http://gqrx.dk/) to [Hamlib](http://www.hamlib.org) interface that keeps
|
|
|
|
the frequency displayed in Gqrx synchronized with the frequency settings on your
|
|
|
|
radio. This version allows for bidirectional control: if the frequency is changed
|
|
|
|
on the radio, then it will be updated in Gqrx, and if a new frequency is selected
|
|
|
|
in Gqrx, then the radio will be tuned to that frequency.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The IF output of the radio should be connected to a SDR, which is then received by
|
|
|
|
Gqrx. This script continuously reads the frequency of the radio from ```rigctld```
|
|
|
|
and sets the LNB and frequency settings in Gqrx. In addition, if a new frequency
|
|
|
|
is selected in Gqrx by clicking on the waterfall, then the script will command a
|
|
|
|
new frequency to ```rigctld``` to update the radio's frequency.
