  • Extra daemon options, per daemon. Each interface now has an options
    field in the configuration window, passed to the Hamlib daemon verbatim:

    -C timeout=500 -C retry=0
    

    Useful for rigs needing timing, retry or PTT settings the defaults do not
    cover — -C …, -P RIG, --vfo, verbose flags and so on. Both
    -C a=1 -C b=2 and Hamlib's shorthand -C a=1,b=2 work.

    Note that Hamlib silently ignores an unknown parameter — the daemon starts
    normally and the setting simply never applies, so check spelling first if an
    option seems to have no effect. rigctld -m <model> -L lists the valid names
    for a rig.

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.
