About:
FLRig is a graphical interface application for amateur radio operators to control their transceivers directly from a computer. It provides real-time frequency, mode, and level adjustments, supporting a wide array of radios via Hamlib. This tool is essential for integrating rig control into a digital workflow or for operators requiring precise remote management.
Key Features:
  • Extensive radio support via Hamlib backend
  • Real-time frequency and mode control
  • Virtual transceiver interface for logging software
  • Cross-platform compatibility
Use Cases:

  • Integration with logging and digital mode software (e.g., fldigi, WSJT-X)
  • Automated frequency tracking and control
Alternatives:
  • Hamlib – Hamlib provides the backend library for rig control, while FLRig offers the graphical user interface to interact with it.
  • FLLog – FLLog is a companion logging application often used alongside FLRig for a complete station management suite.
