HI Rein, i have added a new features in the rflinkserver.pl.
Now the server, if the scanning feature is active, is able to change mode (USB/LSB) on the radio; in the previous version i was able to change only the frequency.
Also i'm able to change the mode in the QRG TRAFFIC Frequency.
I'm using an ICOM IC-706MKIIG and work fine; i think is ok also for other radio. I used the command "M" of the rigctl to change the mode; the passband mode is "0".


These are the changes in the rflinkserver.pl:




*********SCANNER FEATURE MODE

----------------------------
At line 164 added where the scanner file is read:


                       my $rigmodes = $freqhrs[2];
                       @rigmod = split (",", $rigmodes);

----------------------------
SCHEDULER SECTION

At line 1416 after the line (my $outfreq = 0;) added:

$rigm = $rigmod[$mins];


Line 1426 modified:

$error = `rigctl -m $rigtype -r $rigdevice -s $rigrate $cmd $outfreq M $rigm 0`

----------------------------
SUB SCANNER SECTION

At line 2438 after the line (my $outfreq = 0;) added:

$rigm = $rigmod[$mins];


Line 2458 modified:

$error = `rigctl -m $rigtype -r $rigdevice -s $rigrate $cmd $outfreq M $rigm 0`

---------------------------


Example of format of freqs.txt

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*********QRG TRAFFIC FEATURE MODE

Line 57 modified:

my ($ServerCall, $Inputfile, $output, $dbfile, $dbpass, $dbaddress, $relay, $smtptlsuser, $smtptlspass, $smtptlsport, $Max_retries, $Maxidle, $Maxwebpage, $nosession, $commandcall, $Beaconminute, $Aprs_connect, $Aprs_beacon, $Aprs_port, $Aprs_address, @prefixes, $posit_time, $scheduler, @schedule, $rigtype, $rigrate, $rigdevice, $scanner, $qrgfile, $freq_offset, $freq_corrections, @Beaconarray, $traffic_qrg, $traffic_qrg_mode);


At line 60 after the line ($traffic_qrg = 0;) added:

$traffic_qrg_mode = 0;



Line 329/330 modified:

$dummy = `rigctl -m $rigtype -r $rigdevice -s $rigrate "F" $traffic_qrg M $traffic_qrg_mode 0`;
print "QSY to $traffic_qrg in $traffic_qrg_mode!\n"


In the pskmailrc.pl file at line 77 after ($traffic_qrg = 0;) added:
$traffic_qrg_mode = 0; (if modified will be for example: $traffic_qrg_mode = LSB )

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I have pleasure if you can add this feature in the next server release.
I hope to help you to improve the server funcionality.
