[hpsdr] Syncing a transceiver directly to piHPSDR

[Steven Wilson]

Andrew,

The short answer is that this function isn't built into PiHPSDR.

The long-winded answer is - you would have to build a custom application -
but it can be done.  PiHPSDR AND the radio you want it to follow implement
CAT as slave devices.  They both expect another application to send them
commands.  You would need to build an application that reads the frequency
of the transceiver, and sends PiHPSDR a command to go to that frequency.
Use polling, i.e. you run the sequence several times a second.

Of course if you are feeling adventurous you could modify PiHPSDR to do
this since you have the code (or can get it..) but that path is
considerably more challenging.  Look at rigctl.c if that is the path you
choose.  There is a serial connection in there. You would need to set up a
new thread to do the polling of the other radio.

Best of Luck
