Planned for version 4.3 -- comments/suggestions about this are more than welcome
|
|
|
|
Multicast UDP broadcast on port 4531 (one below rigctld 4532)
|
|
|
|
Bidirectional rig control and status
|
|
|
|
Choice of token pairs or JSON
|
|
|
|
All packets will be tagged with ID=[unique name] -- so multiple rigs can broadcast/rx on the same port
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Broadcast packet contents to be based on get_rig_info output
|
|
|
|
This will be the text format of name=value pairs
|
|
|
|
Can be multiple VFO lines
|
|
|
|
Parsers should allow for unknown tags that may be added in the future
