Please send Hamlib bug reports to [email protected]
Version 5.x -- future
* rig_get_conf deprecated and replaced by rig_get_conf2
* rot_get_conf deprecated and replaced by rot_get_conf2
* Change FT1000MP Mark V model names to align with FT1000MP
Version 4.6
* send_raw can now take hex digits as colon-separated -- e.g. send_raw icom xfe:xfe:x94:xe0:03:xfd
* Add IC7760
* IC7300 Mode filter can now be set by # (i.e. 1,2,3)
* Fixed AF6SA WRC rotor controller
* Added Rhode&Schwarz XK852
* Added Xiegu X6200
* Added Commradio CTX-10
* Added Guoehe PMR-171
* Added csntechnoligies.net S.A.T Satellite rotor control
* Added PSTRotator control
* Added Flex SmartSDR slices A-H
* Added Motorola Micom M2/M3
* Added SDR Radio SDRConsole -- TS-2000 is now hardware flow control so need separate entry
* Added --set-conf=filter_usb, filter_usbd, and filter_cw to allow Icom rigs set mode to set filter number too
* Added macros for applications to obtain pointers to Hamlib structures(issues #1445, #1420, #487).
Internal conversion is still a WIP, but use of these macros will make the final cutover transparent to applications.
* Added Guohe Q900 entry
* Unify behavior of all rigctl split commands
* Make the set_split_* commands modify the state of the specified split VFO -- the current or targeted VFO do not have any effect
* Make the set_split_* commands enable split automatically if not enabled
* Make the get_split_* commands return frequency of 0 Hz, mode NONE and filter of 0 Hz if split is not enabled
* Allow all split commands to avoid VFO swapping if supported by the rig model
* Improve Icom backend to set/get frequency, mode and filter without VFO swapping if supported by the rig model
* Improve Yaesu newcat backend split handling
* Expose "Targetable features" (RIG_TARGETABLE_*) in dump_caps output to allow clients to determine which commands can be executed without VFO swapping
* Added RIG_FUNC_SYNC for FTDX101D/MP
* Added Barrett 4100
* Added DL2MAN (tr)uSDX -- needs refinement
* Added Thetis entry -- derived from FlexRadio/Apache PowerSDR
* Added VOICE/CW memory capability to many rigs -- thanks to David Balharrie M0DGB/G8FKH
* Add -# --skip_init option to rigctl to skip rig initialization -- useful for executing commands quickly
* rig_caps is no longer constant -- this may break some 3rd party relying on the "const" declaration. Here's an example of how to handle compatibility.
#ifdef RIGCAPS_NOT_CONST
static int add_to_list(struct rig_caps* rc, void*)
#else
static int add_to_list(const struct rig_caps* rc, void*)
#endif
* IC7610 now has IPP, DPP, and TX_INHIBIT functions set/get
* Hamlib now starts a multicast server that sends out rig information. Does not receive commands yet.
See README.multicast
* rigctld has new -b/bind-all option to try all interfaces -- restores original behavior. This was done to fix duplicate rigctld instances on Windows
* Yaesu rigs can now use send_morse to send keyer message 1-5 or a CW message up to 50 chars (which will use memory 1)
* rig set level METER can now take SWR,COMP,ALC,IC/ID,DB,PO,VDD,TEMP arguments to set which meter to display
* reg get level displays meter number=name now
* Added parm BANDSELECT for Yaesu rigs
'p BANDSELECT' returns current band of VFOA
'P BANDSELECT BAND160M' example selects the 160M band
'P BANDSELECT ?' shows bands available for the rig
* Added rig_cm108_get/set_bit to API and get/set_gpio to rigctl(d) for GPIO1,2,3,4 access on CM108
* Added BG2FX FX4/C/CR/L
* Fixed IC7610 to use new 0x25 0x26 command added in latest firmware
* Fix W command in rigctld to work properly -- can take terminating char or # of bytes to expect
* Add rig_set_debug_filename so Python can redirect debug stream
* Fix Yaesu LBL_NR to use proper values
* Add IC-905
* Add Anytone D578UVIII -- should work on any D558 model and perhaps others too

* Add offset_vfoa and offset_vfob applying to rig_set_freq
* Fix K4 to put it in K40 mode when requesting ID
* Fixes for M2 Rotors
* Add rigctlsync utility to synchronize frequency from a rig to SDR# (or others)
* Add SDR# rig for use with SDR#'s gpredict plugin -- can only get/set freq
* Add Apex Shared Loop rotator -- unidirectional only so far
* Add client_version to rigctld so client can report it's version for future use/compatibility/alternatives
* Add --set-conf=tuner_control_pathname=hamlib_tuner_control (default)
If file exists then it will be called with 0/1 (Off/On) argument
with 'U TUNER 0' or 'U TUNER 1"

* Add SDRPlay SDRUno rig -- can now use Data/Pkt in WSJTX
* Add ability to use cat_string to FLRig via the "w" and "W" commands
* Add -B/--mapa2b to rigctlcom
Allows rigctlcom to map set_freq on VFOA to VFOB instead
This will allow CW Skimmer to work with some rigs (e.g. IC7300) using FM
mode on VFOA and CW mode on VFOB and split mode transmit on VFOB.
Clicking on CW Skimmer will change VFOB instead of VFOA to allow working
dxpeditions where the fox is staying on frequency
* Add password capability to rigctld via -A switch.
rigctld -A will produce a consistent shared key for any specific password that can used in \password and rig_set_password
TBD The shared key can also be placed in .hamlib_settings
* Asynchronous rig data output handling to support transceive and spectrum data. Mikael, OH3BHX
Example for the IC-7300 to multicast on port 20001 and provide async rig information
rigctld --port=20001 --model=3073 --serial-speed=115200 --rig-file=/dev/serial/... --set-conf=rts_state=OFF --set-conf=dtr_state=OFF --multicast-addr=224.0.0.1 --multicast-port=20001 --set-conf=async=1
Also, spectrum data output needs to be enabled with: \set_func SPECTRUM 1
* See new set_conf option async for some Icom rigs
* Multicast UDP packet output for asynchronous data. Mikael, OH3BHX
* Rig state poll routine to serve commonly used data like frequency and mode from cache. Mikael, OH3BHX

Version 4.3.1
* 2021-09-14
* Bug fix release
- Do not do vfo_fixup on satmode rigs
- Fix compilation of misc.c with gmtime_r replacement function for
mingw
- Fix python build. For some reason casting tp vfo_t in the
RIG_VFO_N macro broke the swig parsing
- Append the missing information to build hamlib v4.3 for Android
NDK
- Change set_icom_set_mode_with_data to not change mode unless
necessary
- Since Icom rigs default to filter 2 if a filter is not selected
we will do the same when turning on data mode
- Fix segfault in kenwood_set_vfo
- scripts: Update example in readme, since 4.0 817 is 1020
- Make testlibusb.c compatible with libusb < 1.0.23
Note: On systems with libusb < 1.0.23 a warning will be emitted
but compilation should proceed without error.
- Update testlibusb.c warning to "may be" instead of "will be"
- Change kenwood to only set VFOA default on 1st rig_open call
Version 4.3
* 2021-09-01
* libusb-1.0.23 or greater is now required or use --without-libusb
* Generating documentation now requires GNU source-highlighter.
* Added IC-575
* Less VFO swapping of newer Icom rigs -- zero swapping in WSJTX and JTDX
* Dual rotator control in rotctl -R option
* Started work on simulators -- very crude right now but usable to debug some things
* Overhaul of rig split -- reverse split (VFOA=RX VFOB=TX) should work for rigs capable of it
Starting VFO does not matter -- rig will end up on RX VFO
S VFOA 1 VFOB
S VFOB 1 VFOA
S Main 1 Sub
S Sub 1 Main
Version 4.2
* 2021-05-17
* New rig_get_mode_bandwidths -- returns token set for bandwidths for given mode
Rig command: \get_mode_bandwidths CW
Mode=CW
Normal=500Hz
Narrow=50Hz
Wide=2400Hz
* New rig_get_info -- returns token set for all vfos where order does not matter
This is a string return to allow for easy future expansion without changing the API
New tokens may be introduced and can be skipped if not used by clients
Rig command: \get_rig_info
VFO=Main Freq=145000000 Mode=None Width=0 RX=1 TX=1
VFO=VFOB Freq=145000000 Mode=FM Width=15000 RX=0 TX=0
Split=0 SatMode=0
Rig=Dummy
App=Hamlib
Version=20210429
CRC=0xf49f4708
* New rig_get_vfo_info
Rig command: \get_vfo_info VFOA
Freq: 145000000
Mode: None
Width: 0
Split: 0
SatMode: 0
* FILPATHLEN has changed to HAMLIB_FILPATHLEN
* USRP lib and gnuradio are deprecated and will be removed in 5.0

* Added Malachite SDR
* Major rework for PRM80
* Add twiddle_timeout and twiddle_rit --set-conf options
rigctld --set-conf=twiddle_timeout=5,twiddle_rit=1
This will set the twiddle timeout to 5 seconds and turn on twiddle_rit
For twiddle timeout VFOB will not be polled for 5 seconds after VFO twiddling
is detected
* rigctld --twiddle is deprecated and will be removed in 5.0 along with
get_twiddle and set_twiddle
* Rework Doxygen manual including default layout for Doxygen 1.9.1. So far
the amplifier, rotator, and utilities API sections have been updated. The
rig (radio) section remains to be updated.

* caching of vfo, frequency, mode, and ptt speeds up rigctld for all.
* caching of kenwood/yaesu "IF" speeds up polling from WSJTX/JTDX.
* rig_get_channel now has read_only flag but it still needs to be
implemented based on rig behavior, so if you use rig_get_channel you
may get a RIG_ENIMPL error to contact us for fixing it.
* New rig backend for Elecraft K4.
* New rig backend for PowerSDR (Flex and Apache users).
* Many fixes and enhancements. Mike, W9MDB and many contributors

disappears.
* Updates and fixes to FT-817, K3, IC-7300, AOR 3030, TM-D710,
OMNI VII, TH-D72, Flrig, TS-590, piHPSDR, TS-2000, and netrigctl.
* Update utility manual pages (section 1) and remove their reference
material from the Info manual so it only needs to be update in one
file.
* Add new general project manual pages (section 7) and edit the Info
manual to match. These should not change much so keeping them in
sync should not be too much of a burden. The Info manual may be
removed at some point in the future.
* Last planned release of the present API/ABI. Future releases will
require recompilation and relinking by client programs using the C
library interface (programs that only use the network daemons should
be unaffected).

Version 3.0
2015-09-20
* Kill RPC backends and rpc.rigd/rpc.rotd
* Remove -e|--end-marker option from rigctld and rotctld
* Build system updates--remove obsolete macros, autogen.sh now
runs autoreconf to invoke Autotools to bootstrap the build
system, libltdl is installed into the source tree as a part
of the build system bootstrap and is included in the source
tarball, ABI version is set to be compatible with the 1.2
series, all Autotools installed files are copied rather than
symlinked and put in the build-aux directory, building
rigmem and rigmatrix are now user selectable at configure
run time, building static libraries are disabled by default.
Fixed TCL binding installation, fixed Perl binding build so it
is not invoked by 'make dist' and clean up build files. Cleaned
up bindings builds to occur in alphabetical order. Use new
ax_pkg_swig macro and update ax_python_devel macro. Test for
presence of pkg-config before testing for pkg-config use.
* Implement new RIT/XIT activation/deactivation through rig_get/set_func()
* IC-PCR1500/2500 default write_delay to 0, IC-746/756, IC-PCR8500
fixes, pcr.c, pcr1500.c: Add DSP support. TNX Paul, KE7ZZ
* WinRadio G313 updates. TNX Julian Campbel
* Readline editing and history support added to rigctl interactive
mode. Implement options for reading and writing history file.
* Readline editing and history support added to rotctl interactive
mode. Implement options for reading and writing history file.

HTML files are built and distributed, requires makeinfo.
* Android build system support. See android/README.android. Android
Makefile fragments are included in source tarballs.
* Monolithic library, thanks to Remi Chateauneu for the majority of
the work! This allows enabling of a single static library so
static libs are enabled by default. Removes dependency on libltdl.
* Fixes to easycomm, TNX Steve AI4QR.
* Fixes to port handling allowing PTT and CAT on the same port. TNX
Bill, G4WJS.
* New Peaberry models V1 and V2 added to kit backend. TNX ON8VQ
and R2AEE.
* New IC-7100 model. TNX Martin, CT1IQI.
* Use AC_CHECK_LIB macro to search for libusb rather than rely on
pkg-config. Preserve environment variables LIBUSB_CFLAGS and
LIBUSB_LIBS as user precious variables. Two features,
--with-xml-support and --enable-usrp still rely on pkg-config so
only invoke pkg-config when either or both of these features are
selected. Only the Winradio g313 model uses libdl so test for it
only when Winradio backend is enabled.
* New IC-M700PRO, IC-M710, IC-M802.
* New Icom ID-5100 model.
