TNF (Tracking Notch Filters)

Tracking Notch Filters remove persistent interfering signals from the audio passband.

Creating a TNF

  • Right-click on the spectrum or waterfall → Add TNF at XX.XXX MHz
  • Or click +TNF in the left sidebar (creates TNF at filter center)
  • TNF appears as a yellow shaded region on the spectrum and waterfall

Managing TNFs

Move

  • Click and drag the TNF marker to reposition

Adjust Width/Depth

  • Right-click the TNF marker → adjust Width (Hz) and Depth (1-3)

Make Permanent

  • Right-click → Make Permanent — TNF persists across radio power cycles
  • Permanent TNFs display in green; temporary TNFs in yellow

Remove

  • Right-click → Remove TNF
  • TNFs are removed optimistically (no radio status confirmation)

Permanent vs Temporary

Type Color Survives Reboot Default
Temporary Yellow No Yes
Permanent Green Yes No

Known Issues

  • Sending tnf set immediately after tnf remove can crash the radio (issue #69, fixed with race guard)
  • TNF removal and permanent status changes are optimistic updates — the radio doesn't send status confirmation for these commands
