AETHERSDR(1) User Commands AETHERSDR(1)

NAME

AetherSDR - FlexRadio transceiver client

SYNOPSIS

aethersdr
aethersdr --config command [key] [value]

DESCRIPTION

AetherSDR brings FlexRadio operation to Linux without Wine or virtual machines. Built from the ground up with Qt6 and C++20, it speaks the SmartSDR protocol natively and aims to replicate the full SmartSDR experience.

CONFIG COMMANDS

Settings live in a SQLite store under the user config directory (~/.config/AetherSDR/AetherSDR.db). The --config mode inspects or repairs them without starting the GUI and then exits:

Print every setting as key<TAB>value, optionally filtered by key prefix.
Print one value (exit status 2 if the key does not exist).
Create or change a setting, verifying it persisted.
Delete a setting.
Sanitized dump of the whole store (secrets redacted); diagnostic output, not a restorable backup.
Print the settings database path.
