What's new

  • Name and exclude channels from the detection history. In the TUI Tab selects a history row (arrows move it, Tab/Esc back): l names the channel or marks it digi, as on the activity screen, x excludes it and X excludes it with the adjacent channels. In the web GUI tap a history entry. When the excluded channels include the one the scanner is on, it leaves the signal at once.
  • Web GUI lists no longer wrap the date and time, and never scroll sideways: they show columns when their pane is wide enough and two lines per entry otherwise. The ±N channels button names the --exclude-wide value correctly also for one channel.
  • Step and bandwidth validation: the step must be a standard one (2.5k, 5k, 6.25k, 7.5k, 8.33k, 9k, 10k, 12.5k, 15k, 20k, 25k, 30k, 50k) and bw between 2.5k and 50k. A forgotten suffix (118M-136M:am:8.33, i.e. 8 Hz) used to hang the program at startup; it is now an error that suggests 8.33k.
  • Linux install script: packaging/linux/install.sh checks the build dependencies, builds rfscan and installs it to /usr/local (--uninstall removes it), see Installation in DOC.md.

Windows (64-bit): download rfscan-0.3.0-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.

Linux and Raspberry Pi: build from source with packaging/linux/install.sh, see DOC.md.
