Hi Mike, Bill and all,
In the past, I was able to start with:
/usr/local/rigctld -m129 -s4800 -r/dev/ttyUSB0 --dcd-type=RIG
--setconf=timeout=500,retry=2,write_delay=5,post_write_delay=50,itu_region=1
When using the new hamlib, the "itu_region=1" is not more accepted. Of
course, "-m129" must be changed. What is the reason of the rejection
of this argument ?
Best wishes,

Hi Claude,
that configuration option has been removed, perhaps temporarily. Here's
a comment added to the sources that explains the situation:
// we need to be able to figure out what model radio we have
// before we can set up the rig_state with the rig's specific freq range
// if we can't figure out what model rig we have this is impossible
// so we will likely have to make this a parameter the user provides
// or eliminate this logic entirely and make specific RIG_MODEL entries

I don't know why this change has to be a breaking change, I would have
though a warning message that pointed out that the option is now ignored
would have been more friendly.
