Previously R would retune even when the frequency was already aligned to the jog step boundary. Now it shows "Already on step" and sends no command. Also remove the stale "retune" label from the shortcut help. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Signed-off-by: Stan Grams <sjg@haxx.space>
trx-rs
A modular amateur radio control stack written in Rust.
trx-rs splits radio hardware access from user-facing interfaces so you can run
rig control, SDR DSP, decoding, audio streaming, and web access as separate,
composable pieces.
| Backends | Yaesu FT-817, Yaesu FT-450D, SoapySDR |
| Frontends | Web UI, rigctl-compatible TCP, JSON-over-TCP |
| Decoders | AIS, APRS, CW, FT8, RDS, VDES, WSPR |
| Audio | Opus streaming between server, client, and browser |
Quick Start
1. Install dependencies
Debian / Ubuntu
sudo apt install build-essential pkg-config cmake libopus-dev libasound2-dev
# Optional — SDR support
sudo apt install libsoapysdr-dev
Fedora
sudo dnf install gcc pkg-config cmake opus-devel alsa-lib-devel
# Optional — SDR support
sudo dnf install SoapySDR-devel
Arch Linux
sudo pacman -S base-devel pkgconf cmake opus alsa-lib
# Optional — SDR support
sudo pacman -S soapysdr
macOS (Homebrew)
brew install cmake opus
# Optional — SDR support
brew install soapysdr
See Build Requirements in the wiki for details on each library.
2. Build
cargo build --release
Build without SDR support: cargo build --release --no-default-features
3. Configure
Run the interactive setup wizard to generate config files for your station:
./target/release/trx-configurator
The wizard walks you through rig selection, serial port detection, audio
settings, and frontend options, then writes trx-server.toml and
trx-client.toml.
Alternatively, generate example configs and edit them by hand:
./target/release/trx-server --print-config > trx-server.toml
./target/release/trx-client --print-config > trx-client.toml
4. Run
./target/release/trx-server --config trx-server.toml
./target/release/trx-client --config trx-client.toml
Open the configured HTTP frontend address in a browser (default http://localhost:8080).

Each trx-server owns one or more rigs and runs DSP, decoding, and audio capture locally.
A trx-client connects to any number of servers over TCP and exposes them through
a unified set of frontends.
