![]() I’m using a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ kit, purchased from Amazon. The Raspberry Pi will be connected to the audio interface, and the Yaesu FT-891 CAT control port, turning our Android tablet into a full-featured Linux compatible Digital Comms Power House. That includes the digital modes we use with fldigi, wsjt-x, and I’m hoping at some point I’ll be able to run Wine for the single Windows app I use for HF aprs. Headless RPiĪ raspberry piis a pretty inexpensive computer which we can use to install Linux Ubuntu to run headless, and control all of its functions through an Android tablet wirelessly. Until those apps are available to the public, we need to find a way to bridge the gap between the desktop and laptop worlds, and the ultra-portable tablet or smartphone world, one which almost everyone has and their pocket or backpack. Developers are stepping up to create new mobile apps for amateur radio, with better features than we’ve seen previously. Thankfully there are some pretty cool things going on in the background. This attitude is killing the motivation of Developers who would like to make at least a little something for the effort they put into Android apps for amateur radio. ![]() Even if the app is somewhere between 3 and 10 bucks, the perception is “it’s too much”. Ham radio operators are cheap! We are willing to spend 700 bucks, a 1000 bucks, 2000 bucks on a rig, or 1200 bucks on an almost useless pactor modem, but we often don’t see any value in the time it takes to develop an app for Android. – fldigi was calling TABEVENT which in turn updated theĬALL entry in fldigi … a bit of round robin.One of the biggest sources of frustration for the Android powered amateur radio operator, is the lack of apps supporting the most popular modes we find on Windows, Apple or even Linux computers.

This version of Fldigi is a maintenance release with a couple of bug fixes and several new features, including the addition of several new micro modes. The hard-working development team led by W1HKJ have announced the release of Fldigi v3.23.21.
