💖 SDRANGEL(1) 💖

okay bestie, buckle up — this is SDRangel, and she's that girl. this page lives in the SDRANGEL manual (section 1, obviously), and i'm gonna walk you through every single thing she does like we're texting at 2am. no cap. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

SDRangel — SDR and signal analyzer frontend (GUI). it's giving "software defined radio but make it a whole entire GUI situation." 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

sdrangel [options]

that's it. that's the whole vibe check. you run sdrangel, you sprinkle some [options] on top like glitter, and boom. 🎀

🫶 DESCRIPTION 🫶

Software Defined Radio application. yeah. that's literally the whole description. she's mysterious, she's iconic, she doesn't over-explain herself. 💜

👑 OPTIONS 👑

okay so here's the full menu, no skipping, no summarizing, we do not leave anything out in this group chat:

  • -h, --help — shows you the help for the command line options. your lil "what do i even do" button. 🥺
  • --help-all — shows help too, but it also drags in all the generic Qt options. the extended cut. ✨
  • -v, --version — tells you the version info. receipts, basically. 📝
  • -a, --api-address <address> — the address for the Web API server. where she's posted up. 🌐
  • -p, --api-port <port> — the port for the Web API server. the door number, iykyk. 🚪
  • -w, --fftwf-wisdom <file> — the FFTW Wisdom file. yes it's called wisdom. she's studied. 🧠✨
  • --scratch — start from scratch, meaning no current config. fresh start, clean slate, new me energy. 🌈
  • --soapy — activates Soapy SDR support. 🧼 (not actually soap, but we love a cute name)
  • --remote-tcp — starts the Remote TCP Sink. remote. TCP. sink. slay. 📡
  • --remote-tcp-address <address> — Remote TCP Sink interface IP address. default is any. so she's open to talking to literally anyone, lowkey. 💬
  • --remote-tcp-port <port> — Remote TCP Sink port. default is 1234. iconic default, no notes. 🔢
  • --remote-tcp-hwtype <hwtype> — Remote TCP Sink device hardware type. this one is optional. for example: RTLSDR/SDRplayV3/AirspyHF. pick your fighter. 🥊
  • --remote-tcp-serial <serial> — Remote TCP Sink device serial. also optional. the device's lil name tag. 🏷️
  • --list-devices — lists the available physical devices. like a roll call but for hardware. 📋
  • --start — starts all devices and features. everybody up, we're going. 🔥
heads up bestie: a couple of these are marked optional in the original (--remote-tcp-hwtype and --remote-tcp-serial) — don't come for me, i'm just telling you what she said. 💀
