Re: OpenWebRX+ suggestions

26 Settembre 2026 ore 13:40
A vote from me too for such a feature, please! Being able to define (and edit / hack) a list of user preferred BW somewhere would be good; then being able to select between these BW somehow; and having them stored (with mode) as part of any bookmarks defined.
 
Some versions ago, I did figure out how to hack the code to change default BW for various modes, but this hack stopped working when the feature to drag the filter edges about was introduced. Like Martin, I have the 'asymmetrical filter edges' issue here. Assume it's a bug - a minor one - that will be addressed at some convenient time by the developer.
 
Notwithstanding the above, my thanks to the developer(s) for a great system:-)
 
Regards,

Re: [new] Improved OpenWebRX Packages Available

26 Settembre 2026 ore 13:39
OpenWebRX+ 1.2.124, available from the repository, adds JavaScript API for integrating plugins. It offers methods for creating invocation buttons, panel sections, and floating windows. The popular frequency at mouse pointer plugin has been made a proper UI option. There is also a new IQ file / stream source. See below for all changes.

- Added plugin APIs for buttons, windows, sections.
- Added optional pointer frequency display.
- Added Soapy source for IQ files and streams [f-and].
- Removed Direwolf "fix" since some users complained.

PS: Short cheat sheet for people who just cannot get things to work:

1) If it does not work for you, reload OpenWebRX page while holding the SHIFT key.
2) If it does not work for you, check "Settings | Feature report" page to see what you are missing.
3) If it does not work for you, wait for a day or two, maybe it starts working or you figure it out.
4) If it does not work for you, create a separate forum thread and explain your problem there. Attach the logs, obtained with "sudo journalctl -u openwebrx". Do not paste the entire log into the message, attach it as a file instead.

Using the Receiverbook listing on dxcontest.org

Hello. Jakob, this one is mainly for you, as the maintainer of Receiverbook.

I run dxcontest.org, a free DX cluster site for radio amateurs. Next to every
spot there is a "WebSDR" button that opens the spotted frequency on a remote
receiver that actually covers it. We do not proxy or re-stream anything: the
button opens the receiver's own page in a new tab, already tuned to the
frequency and mode, so the receiver gets a normal visitor and the credit.

The list behind that button holds about 880 receivers today. Almost all of them
are KiwiSDRs, which John Seamons (ZL4VO/KF6VO) kindly allowed us to download
once per hour. The OpenWebRX and WebSDR ones we have added one at a time,
taking the bands from each receiver's own status.json or bandinfo.js, which
does not get us very far.

I would like to use the Receiverbook listing for that, and I would rather ask
than crawl the site. The OpenWebRX and WebSDR receivers are the ones we are
missing; we would leave the KiwiSDR entries alone, since we already have that
list. Is there a way you would be comfortable with: a JSON export, an endpoint,
or permission to fetch the listing pages?

Whatever we use, we would download it once per hour at most, from a single IP,
cached on our side; identify ourselves with a clear User-Agent including a
contact address; follow any rate limit or format you prefer and stop at once if
you ask us to; and credit Receiverbook as the source, with a link, both on the
page and in the list itself.

If the answer is no, that is fine and we will leave it alone.

Thanks, Martin.

Well, as an old "EMC-Chap", I have seen several examples and been able to "identify" them in some way.

Our village has 500 souls. All of them have a terrestrial birth certificate and most probably no
relatives up there, hi.

I will carry on to run my OWRX and observe possible further phenomena.

Such developments may change the orbital spectrum in the future:

I just installed toolbox on another of my OWR+ systems.
 
I used /install.sh --public but I still don't see  admin, open Toolbox → Settings → Extras → Public / shared 
 
Also the toolbox panel pops up on opening OWR+, despite this not being ticked as an option.
 
Additionally, it looks like the public still have access to all of the toolbox controls in the panel.
 
Regards,
 
Martin
