GQRX: Remote Control
Sumber: http://gqrx.dk/doc/remote-control#more-162
GQRX bisa di remote control menggunakan TCP connection default port 7356.
Langkah di QQRX
- Jalankan GQRX
gqrx
- Edit Tools > Remote control Settings
set port 7256 set IP 127.0.01
- Jalankan Remote Control di GQRX . Klik gambar DUA KOMPUTER dempet.
Test
$ telnet localhost 7356 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'.

Saat setting, GQRX akan reply
RPRT 0 - Command successful RPRT 1 - Command failed
contoh:
F 123456789 RPRT 0 f 123456789 c Connection closed by foreign host.
Aplikasi Satelit
You might recognize both the commands and the “RPRT 0” reply from gqrx to be the same as used by the hamlib rigctld protocol. Indeed the command syntax used for this interface is the same as the one used by rigctld and this is not a coincidence. Using this protocol allows gqrx to work together with existing applications that support this interface.
One of these applications is my gpredict satellite tracker. In gpredict you can configure an “RX only” device with the proper network settings and you are ready to track satellites with Doppler shift correction.
Gpredict radio configuration for gqrx
Since this is a rather insecure connection, gqrx will only accept connections from the local host by default. You can change both the network port and the allowed hosts in the remote control preferences dialog window show below.

When adding a new host you must type in the IP address – the current implementation will not work with host names. To edit an entry in the list double click on the row and edit. To delete one or more items from the list, select the items and click on the “Del” button.
Please understand that there is no encryption or authentication involved and you should only use this feature behind a firewall. If you wish to use it on a global network you must tunnel the telnet traffic through SSH and/or another host that adds at least authentication.
The AOS and LOS commands are specific to gqrx and gpredict. I needed to find a quick way to trigger audio recordings based on satellite events. The AOS event is triggered when the satellite comes above the horizon. The LOS event is triggered when the satellite goes below the horizon.
As of writing, only the development version of gpredict is capable of sending the AOS and LOS events.
That’s basically all you can do for now. As a final remark, you might notice that gqrx tries to handle new frequency settings by adjusting the channel filter offset rather than requesting a new PLL frequency. The latter may cause glitches on some devices so for smooth Doppler tuning it much preferred to adjust the frequency using the software filter.
