rfscan now runs on Linux and the Raspberry Pi.

What's new

  • Linux and Raspberry Pi: build from source, see Installation in DOC.md. Tested on a Raspberry Pi 4 (4 GB, Debian 13 64-bit) with Airspy Mini, RTL-SDR (R828D) and SDRplay RSP1A; the scan is as fast as on a PC (speeds in the README). DOC.md also covers the DVB-T driver that takes the RTL-SDR, the SDRplay module and building DSD-FME on Linux.
  • Processor temperature next to the CPU load in the TUI and the web GUI, where the system reports it (e.g. on the Raspberry Pi).
  • Audio outputs on Linux have unique names, so --audio-device can pick each of them.
  • Web GUI behind a reverse proxy with a login: the app manifest now loads too, so the page added to the home screen has the right colors, and Chrome offers to install it as an app when the proxy serves HTTPS.
  • Web GUI: the exit threshold under the SNR bar is shown in the color of its marker.

Windows (64-bit): download rfscan-0.2.0-win64.zip, unpack it anywhere and run rfscan.exe from a terminal. SoapySDR and the drivers for Airspy and RTL-SDR are included, PothosSDR is not needed. An RTL-SDR needs the WinUSB driver (Zadig), an Airspy needs nothing; for an SDRplay see README.txt in the package.

rfscan-0.2.0-third-party-sources.zip holds the source code of the GPL and LGPL libraries in the package (librtlsdr, libusb, pthreads-win32); the list of all components, their versions and licenses is in licenses\SOURCES.txt of the package.
