DigiPi v1.9-3 is now available.  Highlights include AIOC (Baofeng/Kenwood)
interface support along with HDMI displays (720p@1fps).  The Initialize page   
now displays currently connected radio/gps audio devices, removing the
guesswork for device file names.  A new GPS viewer page was added which
includes gridsquare, and a new comprehensive SystemInfo page provides
detailed information about your DigiPi's configuration and condition.
Audio levels are adjustable from your web browser and wifi Hotspot-mode is
now 100% reliable on Pi 3/4/5 models.

DigiPi is an easy-to-use amateur radio data transceiver hotspot for   
Raspberry Pi. All radio data modes are easily accessible over wifi via
your phone or web browser.  Make FT8, JS8Call, APRS and packet modes work
like any other mobile phone app.  Hookup a DigiPi to your rig and   
instantly have access to radio SMS, EMail, and texting.  Ultra-light,
low-power makes it indispensable for Summit and Park operations.  Let's
make Ham radio relevant in the information age!  DigiPi implements all
the data modes we talk about at KM6LYW Radio YouTube channel and is
available to Patrons of the channel! A radio license is generally   
required to use DigiPi, please lookup a local Ham Radio club and get
licensed today!

after digipi 1.9-3 removed rigctld from menu, pat winlink client stopped working.

I changed /etc/systemd/system/rigctld.service to -m 3073 -r /dev/ttyACM0

Was that the right thing to do??

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/rigctld -m 3073 -r /dev/ttyACM0 -s 115200
#ExecStart=/usr/bin/rigctld -m CM108 -r /dev/hidraw0 -s 115200
