VibeServer 11.0.4 — antenna switch EXPERIMENTAL (Linux + Lite)

on GitHub

EXPERIMENTAL — VibeServer 11.0.4 with the antenna switch setup turned on. For anyone who has a network antenna switch and wants to try it. Everything else is identical to 11.0.4. This is not the regular release and nothing will offer it to you automatically.

Installing

• Linux (Raspberry Pi, PC): download the .deb for your machine and install it over your existing VibeServer. Your settings are kept.
  • Pi 3/4/5 or other 64-bit ARM: arm64 · Pi 2 / Pi Zero 2 / 32-bit Raspberry Pi OS: armhf · Intel/AMD PC: amd64
  • sudo apt install ./vibeserver_11.0.4+antswitch1-1_arm64.deb (use the file you downloaded)
  • It is versioned just above 11.0.4, so apt will not swap it back. When 11.0.5 comes out, a normal apt upgrade replaces it.
  • To go back to the regular build: sudo apt install --allow-downgrades vibeserver=11.0.4-3
• Android (VibeServer Lite): install the APK over VibeServer Lite. Your settings are kept. Check for updates will not offer 11.0.4 back to you, but will offer 11.0.5 when it exists.

Setting it up

1. Linux: the setup page → Antenna → Set up an antenna switch? Yes. Lite: Server screen → Advanced → ANTENNA → Set up an antenna switch? Yes.
2. Search for switch… looks for an MQTT broker on your network (port 1883) and for switches that announce themselves on it (Tasmota with discovery on, or Home-Assistant-style switches such as ESPHome). If your broker is elsewhere, type its address (and login, if it has one) and search again.
3. Pick your switch → How many antennas are connected? → give each one a name, its relay, and optionally the bands it should be chosen automatically on (e.g. 0-30MHz, 30MHz+).
4. Optional: Lock antenna controls behind the admin password.
5. On a listener (the web page this server serves, or the VibeSDR app): menu → ANTENNA → choose an antenna. The lit one is what the switch reports is connected.

Please tell us which switch you have (make/model or firmware), whether the search found it, and whether switching and the per-band choice work. If the search finds nothing, a screenshot of what it says helps.

The server reports its version as 11.0.4+antswitch1.
