Shawn,
?
Here are a few more reasons, in addition to what Gyula mentioned:
- I quickly grew tired of constantly providing scripts to fix issues in the 32-bit build.
- I did this early on with the 64-bit builds, but with mass kernel upgrades, new software installations, and system feature changes, things inevitably break. I’m no longer interested in fixing these issues, as people often end up either troubleshooting them on their own or asking me for help.
- I'm the one responsible for supporting these problems when they arise. Right now, the image process is what works best for me.
- I’m not endorsed or compensated by HF Signals. I do this in my spare time, balancing it with a full-time job and raising kids. I’m too young for retirement :)
?
Once someone installs the 64-bit image, whether it's an older version or the latest, the repository is there to pull in new features for the sbitx app. So, they just need to install the image once if they want to maintain it themselves and update the sbitx app with the ./update script.

I’m always open to help in improving this process. If you or anyone else is interested in contributing, feel free to contact me directly or through Discord.
