Re: Conky
I just looked and conky is being developed, AFAICT. the last release was 1.19.6 on Oct 2023. However the conky on my Linux Mint 21.1 is 1.12.2 Jerry ---- Extra Ham Radio Operator: WF5W Registered Linux User: 275424 3D CAD designer (FreeCAD) The most exciting phrase to hear in science - the one that heralds new discoveries - is not "Eureka" but "That's funny...". - Isaac.

Re: Hamlib problems
Thanks Kelly. I have made an interesting discovery. I started over with a backup without Hamlib, and reinstalled. After installing Hamlib it worked as it was supposed to. I entered the following command:???rigctl -m 1028 -r /dev/ttyUSB0 -s 38400, and it returned Rig command: as it was supposed to. I entered f and got 14.074 which was the frequency my radio is on. All as it should be.
Then I tried to set it up so that it auto started on boot. I followed the instructions here:? So here is what I entered: sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/rigctld.service?? [Unit] Description=rigctld Hamradio rig controler After=syslog.target network.target ? [Service] Type=simple ExecStart=/usr/bin/rigctld -m 1028 -r /dev/ttyUSB0 -t 4532 -s 38400 ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID RestartSec=60 Restart=always User=ae8u Group=ae8u ? [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target ? sudo adduser ae8u --system --group --home /var/lib/rigctld sudo systemctl daemon-reload sudo systemctl enable rigctld.service sudo systemctl start rigctld.servictl |
Hamlib problems
Hello forum. I have a Pi 4B running hamlib. I installed it using the scripts provided by KM4ACK located at?.
I set it to run as a rigctld.service. But I have a problem I am struggling to solve. I discovered it when I started setting up Node-RED and all I could get from a request for frequency was gibberish. Upon digging further if I run PuTTY and try to run rigctl, it seems to run fine.? If I run rigctl -l I get the correct response. And if I run rigctl, it gives me Rig command:?But when I enter f , I get 145000000. The rig is set on 14074000.? My rigctld.service file contains the following: Description=rigctld Hamlib
After=syslog.target network.target
[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/rigctld -m 1028 -r /dev/ttyUSB0 -t 4532 -s 38400
ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID
RestartSec=60
Restart=always
User=rigctld
Group=rigctld
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
I can't find any error in the rigctld command.? Any help is appreciated. Thanks and 73, Mike, AE8U |

Sbitx support?
Hi Team, I recently came into posession of an sBitxv2. The UI is.. challenging.. to me. Is there any way we can get support for the radio in these utilities? Ideally keeping the main voice functions of the radio intact? It already runs on a Raspberry Pi, but I never see flrig running, only hamlib on the back end, and have zero idea how to extend things to make it work personally. |
Re: Error running Vara scripts posted
Hey Tim, did you check out?/g/KM4ACK-Pi/message/12128
has the basic notes to get everything working and I tested on mint over the weekend should be good? you need to use the WineHQ package for mint as the OS only has wine 6.x which is very old now? wine 8+ will run VarAC with higher success? varAC also needs vcrun2010 installed via winetricks? K |
