  • Choose the device node. 2.2 named both of the nodes macOS creates for a
    serial port but always opened the call-out one. Each interface now has a
    cu / tty picker, and the chosen node is what the daemon is given:

    cu    ->  rigctld -m 3092 -r /dev/cu.usbmodem14101  …
tty   ->  rigctld -m 3092 -r /dev/tty.usbmodem14101 …

    cu stays the default and is right for nearly everything — it opens
    immediately, where tty waits on carrier detect. But plenty of setups are
    built around the tty.* name, as most rigctld command lines in circulation
    are, and those now work without fighting the app.

    The picker is disabled for ports that have no dial-in twin. The CLI offers the
    same choice when adding a device.

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.

Install
