Re: [Hamlib-developer] Difference in caps.has_get_level between Windows and Debian.

[Black M. <mdb...@ya...>]

WFView implemented their own rigctld server which is not fully capable.  You will not be able to get the caps data from it unless they implement it.

What does work (seems there are some timing problems between WFView for serial I/O but the TCP server works well)

Use the External Control in WFView and set up a TCP Server Port (e.g. 4534) than hook up the real rigctld to it.

Find your rig's model# "rigctl -l | find "7300""

Then run rigctld

rigctld -m 3073 -r 127.0.0.1:4534 -vvv -Z

Now you'll be able to connect to rigctld normally (port 4532) and the caps query should work.

The reason I recently updated hamlib on my Windows machine was that for rig 'NET rigctl' the Windows version had all ones whereas the Debian version had a value in it. These are both connecting to wfview. 

This is still the case with the latest version dated 20240902.

I had a quick look at the code, but it appears dynamically allocated so couldn't work it out. If you get the info from the partner app, then it may be that at fault.
