Pretty nifty stuff! We sometimes forget there are hams in other parts of the world that are doing good things. Thanks for sharing! Mark KD0QYN

Do they have a port for the Pi?
If not that's kind of a mute point for this group

"Do they have a port for the Pi?"
There is a "CatRadio on Raspberry Pi Install Guide" referenced on the PianetaRadio.it website for CatRadio, so likely there is a port for it. 73, Matt, WE1H we1h AT arrl.net www.we1h.com

just installed it no rigs to control, but it installs easily and runs. one issue in the install they have this line to install Qt5: sudo apt install qt5-default libqt5serialport5 libqt5serialport5-dev there is no qt5-default package in the latest Bullseye piOS so replace it with: "sudo apt install qtbase5-dev qtchooser qt5-qmake qtbase5-dev-tools libqt5serialport5 libqt5serialport5-dev" and all is good!
