A message was three stacked lines — time and name, then MMSI and route, then motion, distance, position and age — so a screen held eight of them. It is one line now: time, vessel, message type, and what the message says, opening in place for the MMSI, the channel frequency, the route, the age, the fix and a jump to the map. Twenty-two fit where eight did. What a message says depends on what it is. Position reports give the fix and the motion; the static and voyage reports that carry no fix give the callsign and where the vessel is bound. Both fall back to whatever fields are present rather than showing nothing. The row vocabulary the APRS list introduced is no longer APRS-specific — the classes are decode-line and decode-expanded now, shared by both, and identity sits in fixed columns so the summaries line up down the list instead of starting wherever the callsign happens to end. The three summary cards above the list go the way of the APRS ones. 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.
Note:
cmakeis required even when a system Opus library is installed. Theaudiopus_syscrate probes for Opus viapkg-config; if it is not found (orpkg-configis unavailable), it falls back to compiling a vendored copy of Opus with CMake. A missingcmaketherefore fails the build withis cmake not installed?rather than a missing-Opus error.
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.
