Status and roadmap

What is finished, what is verified on a real radio, and what is still open. For the details of each test see bench results; for what each radio supports see the capability matrix.

Done and verified on a real FT-991A (Raspberry Pi 4)

• Frequency, mode, band, VFO B (A=B, B=A, swap, set frequency, mode), split, RIT/XIT, memory channels (list and recall).
• Receive filters and DSP: width, IF shift, contour, notches, noise reduction, noise blanker, IPO / preamp, ATT, AGC.
• Meters: S-meter, power, SWR (with a warning limit), ALC and COMP (ALC scale calibrated from one point).
• PTT with the server-side safeguards, the transmit switch in Admin > Config, Lock PTT, TUNE, the REAR / MIC input switch.
• Remote audio both ways, Bluetooth headsets, background listening on phones; power off and power on over USB.
• Accounts, roles, the control lease, trusted users, the audit log, settings backup and restore.
• Installation: the ready-made image (also through Raspberry Pi Imager's own screens), the installer pack, in-app update notice and self_update.sh with automatic rollback, Tailscale access (tailscale_setup.sh).

Done, but only against the simulator

• FTDX10, FTDX101D/MP and FT-710: profiles written from their CAT manuals and marked experimental. They need someone with the radio to run the first-contact checklist in other radios.
• Quick split (QS;) on the FT-991A.

Built, not yet released (simulator and real Hamlib rigctl only)

• Logbook link (logbook): a Hamlib "NET rigctl" server on the Pi (port 4532, home network only, off by default) so a logbook such as Log4OM can follow the radio and change frequency and mode. PTT and power are blocked for it. Tested against Hamlib 4.6.2 rigctl; a test with Log4OM itself on the real radio is still to do. WSJT-X transmitting through the Pi is out of scope.

Open

Item	Why it is open
WebSocket audio latency	WebSocket audio (listen, microphone, automatic fallback with UDP blocked) is built and verified on the real Pi; its latency has not been measured
Meter calibration	S-meter, power and SWR are shown from raw values (SWR ratio is an estimate on the FT-991A); ALC has one calibration point
Audio latency	not measured
Antenna switching	the FT-991A has no CAT command for it
C4FM RX/TX DG-ID	not reachable over CAT (checked on the radio); only the WIRES DG-ID menu value is read
Writing memories from the page	deliberately not built: the program never changes a memory
Automatic rollback test, restore.sh, uninstall.sh	scripts exist; a full real-Pi run of each is still to be recorded
Real-device UI testing	tablets, iPhone/iPad and PWA install have had little testing
Colour themes / colour-blind mode	the dark theme is the only one
