OpenWebRX+ Release News & Support

Creating this thread to post news about the OpenWebRX+ project and answer questions.

OpenWebRX+ is Linux-based project that lets you share your RTLSDR or a bunch of other SDR receivers online. It contains decoders for many communication modes, including HAM, aviation, and maritime communications. OpenWebRX+ can decode received data either interactively, or in background, sharing results via MQTT. It has a built-in map and a file browser for accessing decoded SSTV, weather fax, and other files.

For details, please, take a look at OpenWebRX+ documentation. You may also want to visit the news channel on Telegram.

OpenWebRX+ 1.2.127, available from the repository, hopefully fixes Sondehub reporter (please, test), lets you ban pesky clients “forever” (or rather until the OWRX restarts), improves SSTV decoding, and fixes a few smaller things. All changes:

  • Added ability to ban clients forever.
  • Refactored and simplified Sondehub reporter.
  • Allowed empty URLs in the settings.
  • Fixed bandwidth units in LoRa config.
  • Improved SSTV decoding, reverting some changes.
