Hi
First let me say thanks for the great Linux Logging software!
I'm using CQRLog 0.8.5 and Hamlib version 1.2.10 (svn)
Trx control works fine as long as I enter a direct serial port in Trx Control Preferences. However I would really like to use rigctld (rig model = 2) or even rpc.rigd (rig model = 1901) for radio control.
I can use rpc.rigd with fldigi or grig etc, but not cqrlog.
For example I start the rigctl running with
$ rigctld -m 122 -r /dev/ttyS0 -s 4800
and then in another xterm I can:
$ rigctl -m 2 -r localhost get_freq
14070000
If I enter localhost for Device and RID ID Model = 2 in CQRLog and set Debug =1 on startup I get:
In inicializerig
Model:2
Port:localhost
Baudrate:4800
Databits:8
StopBits:1
Handshake:
Parity:None
DTR:OFF
RTS:OFF
Poll:500
An error has occured setting the serial speed:4800
Reloading rig configuration
An error has occured setting the serial speed:4800
CQRLog should not be trying to use Serial settings here I don't think.
I see a previous thread in this form http://www.cqrlog.com/?q=node/115 where N0NB was having the same trouble with rpc.rigd.
Has anyone got this to work or is it something that needs to be fixed?

Hi Glenn,
rpc.rigd works with hamlib version 1.2.6.2. Newer vesrions doesn't work. I don't know why, it's probably a bug in hamlib wrapper in cqrlog. I hope I'll find it and fix it.
Serial speed settings doesn't matter, if you use rpc.rigd, hamlib ignores it.

Hi Petr
Thanks for the info. I'll try with an older version of hamlib.
Does rigctld (Rig ID Model =2) work with CQRLog with hamlib version 1.2.6.2 also?
Good luck finding the bug. If I can help in anyway finding or testing please just ask!

Hi Glenn,
yes, it should work.

Glenn, I doubt rigctld will work satisfactorily in 1.2.6 as that is a fairly old version and rigctld is still quite new. It may not even be in 1.2.6!
Petr, can you work with Stephane on the Hamlib-developer list on the rpc.rigd issue? He is much more knowledgeable with that code than I am.
Hi John,
I will work with Stephane but at first I must find yout changes between hamlib versions. I'm sorry, I'm very busy with my real work.
