Injecting CAT Command as part of varafm connect

[Derrick Beard]

Is it possible to inject a rigctld command as part of connecting to Vara FM?  either part of my hamlib_rigs as follows:

  "hamlib_rigs": {
    "ftx-1": {
      "address": "localhost:4532",
      "network": "tcp"
    },
    "ftx-1-fm": {
      "address": "localhost:4532",
      "network": "tcp",
      "vfo": "VFOB",
      "ptt_vfo": "VFOB",
      "pre_connect_hook": "rigctl -m 2 -r localhost:4532 w 'VS1;'"
    }

  },

or 

  "varafm": {
    "addr": "localhost:8302",
    "bandwidth": 0,  
    "rig": "ftx-1-fm",
    "ptt_ctrl": true
  },

rigctl -m 2 -r localhost:4532 w "VS1;" runs fine from the command line, changes my ftx-1 active Main-side to active Sub-side.  Pat changes the frequency on the VFOB side, but I don't think hamlib 5.0 can do this yet.

Hi,

No, there is no such feature at this time unfortunately.

Are you trying to achieve a switch from Main to Sub before connecting with VARA FM so that the rig uses Sub for the connection?
