Save Current State

#1

Unread post by N6ATC »

Hello,

I often open SDR Console and set up 3 or 4 receivers and have them tuned to various frequencies. I find that I frequently set up the same exact configuration over and over from session to session.

It would be nice if the current state could be saved, named, and then re-opened to that exact configuration again at a later time. The saved state would include the radio currently selected and the bandwidth setting.

(Now, if this is an option already in the program that I've missed, I'll apologize here, in advance.)

Curt, N6ATC

Hi Curt

Favourites does this. It's very powerful and often overlooked.

I have used 'Favorites' for years, but I didn't know that it did this!

Thank you very much.

Consequently, my new feature request is retracted.

Hi Curt

Only really started realising the power of Favourites myself quite recently so not at all a bad thing to bring the power of this feature to attention of others who may also not have realised.

Also to point out that Simon has provided a very useful set of default Favourites that are all pre-programmed on first installing the program. I use these a lot too.

I've always loved the Favorites and this new (to me) information makes it even better. I'd be interested to see how others have theirs configured. Here's mine:

Sorry, the maps alone won´t fit in one screenshot Curt.
If you are a realy a Favourites geek ... JDow made a nice tool to export & import parts of Favourites files, so to exchange with others.
I think it got lost when switching to the new forum but it must be somewhere on a HD overhere. Just let it know when you're interested. 73
