chamging websdr

Post by kees13 »

I successfully installed the latest version of pocketRxTx on my wolfgang smartfone .
It works ok but I get only the websdr on kn43bk. Although at the start a few more websdrs are given very shortly ón the screen . Also two blocked stations .
How can I change to the other websdr s ? Clicking on the icoon doesnt help.

Hi,

You can select the server by entering setup mode. This can be done in two ways, from the main virtual transceiver screen:
- click on small icon of the current server
- click on system menu and select SETUP

You will get a page where you can select the server and to read some more info about each of them.

Hi,

This is the procedure to add a new websdr server in Pocket RxTx:
- prepare an sdr.xml file using the one attached as a template (this is the one used on my WebSDR server in KN34bk).
- put the file in the root of the websdr server (pub2 directory).
- prepare 2 jpg images: one of 480x320 to represent your station and a logo in 128x128 pixels format.
- in the xml file you will enter the url for the two images and for a web page to describe your setup.

Please take care that fmax-fmin in sdr.xml for each band to be 48000, 96000 or 192000, depending on the soundcard samplerate.

When everything is ready, send me a mail and I will add your server in the master xml file.

Please take care to validate the xml file to be sure that is free of errors.
You can use an online tool for that, for example:
http://www.xmlvalidation.com/

Hope this clarifies your question.

Good luck.

Hi,

Once registered in Pocket RxTx you can change the server configuration at any time without my intervention. You will only need to update the sdr.xml file too.

Best regards,
Dan
