General Discussion / Phantom is Multi-Lingual !
Last post by F1NSK - Jan 26, 2026, 02:50 PM
Hello Guys

1.6.7 release is compiled on the Core I3
I've put a limit to ten users to avoid CPU overheating and surcharge.
All work fine.
On Firefox I've tried the translator tool.
Miracle ! The GUI is perfectly translated and usable with the language of your choice.
Even with particulars alphabets (Greek, Chinese and so on)
Usefull for users.

Best regards and 73's

PhantomSDR Hardware / Re: [Fobos SDR] not recomendab...
Last post by F1NSK - Jan 25, 2026, 03:36 PM
Since 2024, Fobos receive two firmware updates.
Now, it work drasticaly better.

I use one with sdr++ on Linux or W11.
Work well on HF but this RX is clearly made for VHF/UHF, overcoming other products i had tested.

At this time, i'm newbie with Phantom but i hope be able in the future to use a Fobos.

I'm curious !  :(

How to update markers.json

  • Unzip the file "frequencylist.zip" into the folder cd $HOME/PhantomSDR-Plus/frequencylist/.
  • Modify the file "manual-markers.json" with your own markers.
  • download from https://new.hfcc.org/data/ the newest list, at the buttom of page, current: B25allx2.zip - B25 Operational Schedule - Last updated on 08-Jan-2026
  • unzip the downloaded file from the database into the folder frequencylist.
  • ensure that "B25all00.TXT" and "broadcas.txt" are located in the "frequencylist" folder
  • modify "update-markers.sh" line 5 to your personal full path --> "cd $HOME/PhantomSDR-Plus/frequencylist/". Make this file executable.
  • NB don't use '~ ' if you use the cron service e.g. use cd home/user/PhantomSDR-Plus/frequencylist/
  • run update script with "update-markers.sh" manually or let it run automaticly by a cron job (for example update every 15 minutes a hour 'sudo crontab -e' and enter '0,15,30,45 * * * * /usr/bin/bash /home/user/PhantomSDR-Plus/frequencylist/update-markers.sh')
  • The script will generate the "shortwavestations.json" based on the data given from the database and finaly will merge it with "manual-markers.json", so to create the final "markers.json" in the root PhantomSDR-Plus folder).
  • NB Your markers in mymarkers.json will overwrite and replace the duplicate markers from shortwavestations.json in the final markers.json file which will be generated. The given mymarkers.json contains some demo markers, you can replace them with your own!

Very well dear OM! Some difficulties to start streaming, maybe due your CPU of the i3. You can maximize bandwidth up to 20MHz instead of 30MHz, for smoother play.
I would also like to inform you that today the v.1.6.7 is released, if you would like to upgrade. If you have already installed v.1.6.6 and works, then the upgrade will be easily installed.

Do not hesitate to ask questions, and we'll be glad to help, if we know the answers.

Hi guys
I'm new on this forum.
After compilation on a Core I3 computer, my Phantom work !
Some littles difficulties but it's good for learning !  :D
I've choose the Emmanuel (SV1BTL) release for the amazing analog S-meter.
Congratulations Emmanuel for this fine business !
The receiver is the well known RX888.
The antenna is a big loop of 100 meters and a 6/1 ratio home-made transformer.
The loop is totaly isolated by inductive coupling. It's a noise quiet antenna.
The antenna feed an Elad active splitter with attenuator and switchable independant preamps.
All the station share the Rx antenna.

Best regards and 73's to everybody.

Well, the problem with your script is that replace all data in the markers.json with the newer data. The other problem is that if you have already some manually added markers, they are going to be replaced too.
I've decided to make some modifications to your files. So, I've added a "mymarkers.json" into the frequency folder, and then with a modified "update-markers.sh" I force the generated files from SW data base to be combined with the mymarkers and together to create a new "markers.json" to the root PhantomSDR folder. I am testing the whole thing, and I'll be ready to upload them, with other modifications, to the newer v.1.6.7.

Check my server, markers.json are build with this method.

I've not tested the cron setup yet.

Quote from: Hendrik on Jan 23, 2026, 11:10 AMThe new function on Darkos(thanks for support) site is very helpful. Due to the fine scale it's easy to determine the rtty shift for an example.   I can only greet to bring this function at the new release.

May be it would be make sense to mention the compatibility topic (svelte v4) at the manual. I don't know if have every potential PhantomSDR Plus owner the relation to this forum.

RTTY is already tested, but the decoder functions with too many mistakes.

New install.sh is created, which will correct all these errrs during initial setup.

Quote from: Hendrik on Jan 22, 2026, 10:16 AMI tried to check your new release, but shurely currently you've to fight with your come back - the SDR is down.

Well now the is another situation... No currency in the QTH, because yesterday Greece faced a really bad weather catastrophe and there are big areas without electricity. I belong to these areas!.. :) . BUT I already had asked Darko to test the setup and you can see it here: http://9a7aof.ddns.net:8905/. You only need to click Audio Spectrogram -> Show and a new popup window will appear under the waterfall with a real time audio spectrogram of what you are hearing. With Audio Spectrogram -> Hide, the window disappears.

I will open your files you've sent during the weekend. And of course there will be included in the next release among the last changes, as v.1.6.7

I have to notice that a new sysop must be very careful with npm, nve, vite, and all these tools, because there are new releases not compatible with svelte v4 we use, so I have desided to rewrite the install.sh with a new one, to force download and install the correct version, otherwise the compile will not go on.
