OpenWebRX+ 1.2.75 is now available from the repository. This release adds the per-profile ability to control an external transceiver rig, since not every profile may be applicable for transmission. There is also a bunch of fixes.

- Added profile-specific transceiver rig control setting.
- Added CLEAR button to CW skimmer.
- Replaced ascent/descent symbols Chrome turned into emojis.
- Removed backslash before underscore in 'freedv_rx'.
- Now loading UI and audio settings separately.
- Removed some FT8 debug messages.
- Silenced CW skimmer audio.
External rig control instructions now available here.

Somebody sent a Robot24 image, for real!
Satellite instructions are now part of the documentation, but please, do use them carefully, avoid enabling SatDump on public OWRX servers, and do not proceed unless you know exactly what you are doing.
Thanks to Stanislav, Docker, Airspy, and HackRF are now covered by the documentation. Please, let me know if you see any mistakes or would like to add more information on these subjects.
Looks like OWRX (green) is beating the Kiwi (red) in the US =)
Europe is sort of tied...
OpenWebRX+ 1.2.76 is now available from the repository. This release fixes FFTW3 race condition in the SSTV decoder that had potential to crash OpenWebRX. I have also improved CW skimmer performance. The Settings page now shows when the shortwave schedule and the repeater list have been last updated.

- Refactored SSTV decoder code.
- Eliminated FFTW3 race condition in SSTV decoder.
- Disabled AVT-90 SSTV mode due to quality concerns.
- Fixed Scottie DX VIS code.
- Improved CW skimmer sensitivity.
- Not clearing CW skimmer when frequency changes.
- Settings page shows EIBI schedule download time.
- Settings page shows repeaters list download time.
- Using degree sign for temperatures on the map.

The OpenWebRX+ 1.2.76 is now available as 32bit and 64bit SD card images for Raspberry Pi devices, built by Stanislav (LZ2SLL). The 32bit image should run on all devices except RPI5. The 64bit image should run on all devices except RPI1, RPI2, and RPIZero1.
CW skimmer keeps getting better but requires more testing.
The new csdr-cwskimmer package is now available from OpenWebRX+ repositories. Version 1.2 greatly improves the quality of multi-channel CW decoding. Please, upgrade and give it a try. Changes:

— Converting inputs to 1/0 before feeding to CW decoders.
— Picking the most common magnitude as the base for 0.
— Improved errors removal (repeating I/E/Ts).
A small fix to the KiwiSDR web site scraper shows the real spread of KiwiSDR receivers compared to OpenWebRX. Yeah, Kiwi is massive, in spite of its cost.
Europe is a bit more divided between Kiwi and OWRX though.
This guide often gets lost, so going to keep it here for future reference.
