and re-install
or use this install.sh instead
and inform me about the results, so to update the script in the github.

I tried the manual installation and it works. The problem is that when compiling manually
there is no menu for receivers.

After the manual installation I ran the install.sh that Emmanuel attached to his message,
then I ran ./recompile.sh and set the default page layout.

RADE does not work on Ubuntu 22.0.4 server, I am thinking about migrating to Debian 13 Trixie. I will report the results.

Hello Darko

I agree, RADE dont work on ubuntu 22.04...

I'm now sticked on Debian12 (Bookworm).
All decoders work fine.
I will send to Emmanuel
 an install-deb12.sh working error free at the fist time.

RADE works fine but it's hungry of CPU  with several users !
On the test Core I3 four users crashes the server ....  

An other little bug, when listening Rade, The audio recorder don't work. No sound on the files.

73's my friend

Darko, before changing OS, can you please test this script made for installing RADE in Ubuntu 22.04? AI has given it to me, after asking for help.

An other little bug, when listening Rade, The audio recorder don't work. No sound on the files.

This is not a bug. Rade bypasses pcm output and take audio before everything else like filters AGC, mute, volume etc. This is done so nothing would affect digital decoding.

RADE works nicely on in Ubuntu 24.0.4 !

I upgraded from 22.0.4 to 24.0.4 on a test machine:

https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-to-upgrade-from-ubuntu-22-04-lts-to-ubuntu-24-04-lts/

Then I did a clean install of v3.1.1, installed RADE it and it works, everything is in the green.
I'll do the same on the main server tomorrow. I'll report the results.

73!

I wonder why all these problems with Ubuntu 22 and RADE. After too many tries, I've first installed RADE in my pc on Ubuntu 22. The first step of HOW THIS DAMN THING CAN WORK (?) was done!
After this first successful try, we've installed RADE with the script AND manually in SV2AMK and SV2SRX, both with Ubuntu 22. - no problems at all.
After this came SV2YJ, another Ubuntu 22. Too many tries, ALL UNsuccessful. We thought that the problem was the complex VPN setup he uses, but this didn't explain why locally sidecar was not activated.
Then you came to report the same installing problem, which was resolved with different Ubuntu versions, or different OS,
Meanwhile my pour test server, a RPi5 Bookworm 12 was installing RADE with all ways, with different scripts, no problem at all, always sidecars 'green', demodulation o.k.
My head was almost broken, AI has offered me some solution, all successful here locally, but not useful for you....
Maybe Medicine is less complex than Linux... 

upgraded from 22.0.4 to 24.0.4

What about FM demodulation problem on 24.0.4 Darko?

RADE works fine but it's hungry of CPU

Yes, it is CPU 'hungry'. My i5 12th gen can hold up to 30 users and this is the best setup that I could made in rade_helper.py ('TORCH_THREADS = os.environ.get("RADE_TORCH_THREADS", "1" ) one step before audio drops

Please try this audio.js. I think that the problem with record demodulated RADE audio, has been resolved.

What about FM demodulation problem on 24.0.4 Darko?

I think it works, I concluded that from the change in noise when changing the modulation type.

I'm currently upgrading my computer where the Phantom
is configured to work on the 2m band. I'll be sure in two or three hours.
I'll also try that new audio.js on 22.0.4, as time allows.

Hello Guy's

The news from my side !

Debian 12 on a Core I7. Phantom V3.1.1
For the installation, I've simply downloaded the Zip file on Github.
Unzipped in home/user/PhantomSDR-Plus.
Replaced install.sh by my install-deb12.sh (file send by mail to Emmanuel)
Fist install the prerequisites and run install-deb12.sh
Fast and furious with no errors !
RADE installed without errors and work fine.

Sound with V3.1.1 is amazing. Clear, no cuts and a real pleasure on a good loudspeaker set

I've tested this morning FM with my Own transceiver on HF. Perfect reception on the Phantom.

At this time I will stick the live server with this setup. It works perfect and my end-users happy 

I will work now on the twin Smeter app svelte. The work is in progress, slowly with my own brain 
I'm not familiar with I.A, only to generate pictures !

The best for you two my friends

Please try this audio.js. I think that the problem with record demodulated RADE audio, has been resolved.

I inserted new audio.js and recompiled the frontend,
then ran the install_rade_ubuntu22.sh script,
it's green and on Ubuntu 22.0.4.

What about FM demodulation problem on 24.0.4 Darko?

FM works fine, I tested it on Ubuntu 24.04 on CB and 2m  band.

No file received Eric. Please resend it or attach it here, so to upload it to the github.

I am working now on trimming the audio level of the recorded demodulated RADE signal. This is my last record. When ready, I'll give you the newer audio.js here and I'll upload it on the github.

[Emmanuel SV1BTL]

Final version of audio.fjs with RADE recording and trimming audio level of the decoded audio.
Line 1347:

Code Select Expand

    // RADE decoded-audio gain node.
    // Change ONLY the next line to trim recorded demodulated RADE audio:
    // lower value = quieter recording, higher value = louder recording.
    this.radeGainNode = new GainNode(this.audioCtx)
    this.radeGainNode.gain.value = 0.30 // <-- TRIM RADE RECORDED AUDIO LEVEL HERE
    this.radeGainNode.connect(this.gainNode)

Already uploaded in github. You can try it here:
