This Blog is mainly dedicated to Amateur Radio (Ham radio) and contains external articles and personal esperiences. IT System Engineer, recently started having fun with morse code and Raspberry Pi Licensed Amateur Radio operator in 1996 as IW5EDI, active member of ARI Firenze and ARRLĬlass 1970, married with two childrens, love experimenting and antenna home-brewing. Running Fldigi Flmsg and Flwrap on the Raspberry Pi 2 OctoJeffrey Kopcak Final steps Linux groups User may need to be a member of the ‘audio’ and ‘dialout’ groups. On the Raspberry you need to configure the connection with the USB to Serial cable connected to the RS-232 port of the TS-590S. Basically FLRG acts as a gateway to your radio. Drag and drop the fldigi.prefs file to the USB stick. fldigi to see the contents of this directory. This will reveal a set of hidden directories whose names begin with a period (. On the MAC you need to reconfigure the programs, in order to use FLRIG as Radio. In the /home/pi File Manager instance, go to the View menu and select Show Hidden. FLDIGI for common digital modes and WSJT-X for weak signals digital modes. I’m using RUMLOG by DL2RUM as main logging program both as main logging and for contest logging as well. Additionally remote connection from the internet requires a PC always turned on or at least the possibilty to power on with wake-on-lanĪn alternative solution is to run the FLRIG on the iMac, and connect the applications to the local loopback 127.0.0.1. This allows me to control the Kenwood TS-590S from the iMac simultaneously with several applications, including RUMLOG, FLDIGI, WSJT-X.Ĭould not control simultaneously my transceiver directly from two or more applications. Get a TRRS cable at the local store in the phone section and chop the other end off and connect up to the Easy Digi board for Computer audio in and out.I’ve recently introduced a Raspberry PI 4 as main remote RTX controller for my Kenwood TS-590s. (you have to add your own cables to the kit) I have heard the Texas FSQ Digital net also talk about their use of these low cost kits which has prompted me to post them here in the Digital section of Corps.Ĭurrently I have tested them on a Raspberry Pi3 along with this $7.95 TRRS sound card. I got both an entire complete setup and the 2 board kit that sells for $7.95. Hi folks, I have tested these “Easy Digi” since May 2018. This comes in to your computer through your sound card, so you can decode these signals into text from a Shortwave Radio Receiver or even a recorded audio file.Ĭlick HERE to learn more about digital communications.ĭigital Communications Downloads: Ham Radio Deluxe FLAMP FLDIGI RMS Express Note: No Ham Radio License required to receive digital communications. Digital communications Send or receive text messages over radio using your computer’s sound card or using a Signalink. However, it does not require an internet connection for transmitting and receiving-it uses radio waves. It just sounds like a ‘humming or buzzing’ noise while transmitting to anyone monitoring the frequency without the digital equipment.ĭigital communications does require a computer since it uses software such as fldigi. Another benefit is, digital communication can only be “decoded” by others set up for digital communications. Digital communications requires less power, transmits farther and is reliable even in poor conditions.
