Fixed

  • A mode of "None" next to the frequency. A daemon that has only just
    started has not populated its per-VFO cache, and Hamlib answers
    get_vfo_info with the literal string None. That is "not known yet", not a
    mode, and it is no longer displayed as one.

  • The mode then staying blank. Hamlib only fills a VFO's mode cache when
    something asks the plain way, so a client reading solely through
    get_vfo_info never triggered it and the mode never appeared. The menu and
    the CLI now send one get_mode on connect, and every VFO reports its mode
    from the first read.

Requires Hamlib

brew install hamlib

Hamlib provides rigctld, rotctld and ampctld — the daemons this app starts
and reads from — and their model tables. It is not bundled. Tested against
Hamlib 4.7.2.
