HI Folks,
I've been lurking in read-only mode for a while here, and just upgraded to 2.2.2 up on my Atomic-Pi. Building the code was simple and all works well.
I was wondering if I could ask for 2 feature requests as time permits, please?
1) user_hardware: (I understand this is currently temporarily broken) Looking at the code, it seems that this feature was implemented only for WSPR but not for some of the other sub-modules within the program. My request is two-fold. First, Please consider calling this script at any mode or band change program-wide.
Secondly, in addition to the band information, if additional information could be included in the calling arguments, (Mode, Band and Frequency) this would be extremely helpful, and might help forstall other feature requests since folks would be able to implement more powerful side functionality.
In my case, I have been using an FT736r for the "JT Modes", however I also use the same rig for satellite use, repeater use etc. (I do this via a very old piece of code called FT-7361 which I dragged kicking and screaming into this century... :) With FT-7361, I can schedule the radio to do various things at various times and if I could get the above requested parameters, would bypass hamlib altogether for this particular use case. The end result would be WSPR during the day, automatically shifting to satellite use at certain times, and listening to my local repeater during commute hours. IN this case, WSJTX becomes a client, rather than the master of the relationship with the radio.
2) My second feature request is to allow certain callsigns to be excluded from the list of stations that are displayed during decode. The use case here is that on 6 meters, many of the local stations call CQ repeatedly all day, essentially causing other interesting dx to scroll off the screen. Being able to filter at least their cq calls would make it easier to see when the band opens to interesting places.
Thanks for any consideration!
