FlexRadio

When the CAT backend is a FlexRadio (SmartSDR), OpsLog shows a full SmartSDR-style control panel (as a Main-view pane or the FlexRadio tab). It talks the radio's TCP API directly and streams live meters over UDP (VITA-49).

Slices (multi-slice)

FlexRadios can run several receiver slices (A/B/C/D…). OpsLog shows every in-use slice as a row of buttons under the header:

  • Click a slice to make it the active slice — the main frequency, mode, DSP and spot-clicks all follow it.
  • Click a slice's TX badge to move the transmitter onto it.
  • Split is detected only when the TX slice and a same-band RX slice form a genuine split; independent slices on other bands are not shown as split.

Everything you do targets the active slice, so a second slice monitoring another band never hijacks your main frequency.

Header

Model + RX/TX state, plus compact PA voltage and PA temperature readouts (temperature turns amber/red as it climbs).

Transmit

RF power, tune power, TUNE, MOX, SPLIT, speech processor (NOR / DX / DX+), VOX (+ level + delay), monitor (+ level), mic gain, TX filter low/high cut, and the mic profile selector. On CW the panel switches to keyer controls (speed / pitch / break-in / sidetone / filter).

Receive (active slice)

RX/TX antenna, AGC mode + threshold, audio level, and the noise/notch filters: NB, WNB (wideband noise blanker), NR, ANF, and APF on CW — each a toggle plus level. Filter-width presets per mode.

Amplifier (PowerGenius XL)

If a PowerGenius XL is detected, its OPERATE / STANDBY, fan mode and fault show in an Amplifier card, with the amp's FWD / ID / TEMP meters inline. See Amplifiers and Switches.

Meters

Live UDP meters under the slices: S-meter (S-units, click → fill RST), forward power (W), SWR, mic level (40…+10 dB, red = overdrive) and compression. PA voltage and temperature are in the header.

Antennas per band

Configure Flex RX/TX antennas per band (Settings → FlexRadio); OpsLog applies them automatically on band change.
