[Hamlib-developer] Some questions about RFPOWER

[Sakari N. <sak...@ni...>]

Hi!

1) If I compare result from "get_freq" and "get_level" arises a 
question; Why the output is not similar?

+\get_freq currVFO
get_freq: currVFO
Frequency: 10137820
RPRT 0

+\get_level currVFO RFPOWER
get_level: currVFO:RFPOWER    <--------expecting here
0.972549                     <---------different format
RPRT 0

Like this:

get_level: currVFO
RFPOWER: 0.972549
RPRT 0

Then the same parser could be used here as is in use with Freq and others.

----------------------------------------

2) Is there some (legacy) reason that first I have to "get_level 
RFPOWER" and then put it to "power2mW <myRFPOWER> <myFERQ><myMODE>"
to get the actual power ?

All those are values rigctld knows by itself already. Could there be 
ready calculated result with command "get_level RFmW" in addition of 
existing commands?

HNY 2025!
