RIG CONTROL #982

Open DANKC2STA opened 1 year ago

DANKC2STA commented 1 year ago

I am really confused about CubicSDR Rig control. I am trying to use it under Ubuntu 22.04

First, I cannot find any documentaion to explain how to use it.

Second, it appears to be different for all the other SDR programs out there.For example Windows SDR# uses Calico CAT, which uses VSP and emulates the Kenwood TS200.

On Linux sdr++ and gqrx both use Rgtl, local host.

CubicSDR though shows all radios in hamlib (inscuding NET server rigctl)

So how does one set up WSJTX to control Cubic SDR?

Thanks Dan KC2STA

CubicSDR is a little strange in that it needs to have rigctld running. I have a web page that helps to install SDR systems on a Raspberry Pi, but it is useful for most linux systems. https://www.radiosrs.net/tech.html

The page you need is Setting up WSJT-X to work with your SDR program

With CubicSDR, you can receive with WSJT-X decoding, display it on a map and listen to another radio station all at once. Just be sure that the WSJT modem is selected when you change frequencies.
