kalibrate, or kal, can scan for GSM base stations in a given frequency band
and can use those GSM base stations to calculate the local oscillator
frequency offset.

Please note that if you are on 2015 firmware you must update the SPI flash
and CPLD of your hackrf, otherwise you may experience unpredictable behavior.
See: https://github.com/mossmann/hackrf/wiki/Updating-Firmware
HackRF 2018.01.1
- improved reliability of DFU boot loader
HackRF 2017.02.1
- Sweep mode
- Hardware synchronization
- reduced power consumption
- bug fixes
Version 3.3
2018-08-20
* New models, R&S xk2100, TRXMAnager, Meade LX200
* HTML manual is now generated at 'make dist' so users don't
need GNU Info tools installed. TNX Greg, N1DAM for the suggestion.
* Handle longer udev generated file names up to 512 characters
* Add debug time stamps with new '-Z' option and '--debug-time-stamps'
options to rigctl, rotctl, rigctld, and rotctld utilities.
* rigctld/rotctld continue working after serial or TCP device
disappears.
* Updates and fixes to FT-817, K3, IC-7300, AOR 3030, TM-D710,
OMNI VII, TH-D72, Flrig, TS-590, piHPSDR, TS-2000, and netrigctl.
* Update utility manual pages (section 1) and remove their reference
material from the Info manual so it only needs to be update in one
file.
* Add new general project manual pages (section 7) and edit the Info
manual to match. These should not change much so keeping them in
sync should not be too much of a burden. The Info manual may be
removed at some point in the future.
* Last planned release of the present API/ABI. Future releases will
require recompilation and relinking by client programs using the C
library interface (programs that only use the network daemons should
be unaffected).
## [3.7.13.4] - 2018-07-15
### Fixed
#### Project Scope
- Fix Boost 1.67 linking issue
#### gnuradio-runtime
- Logging: fixed issues where messages weren't properly written to
stdout/stderr due to incorrect strings
#### gr-analog
- `fmdet_cf`'s derivative coefficients were wrong.
#### gr-blocks
- `skiphead` used to incorrectly handle tags, now properly shifts
#### gr-digital
- `qa_packet_format`: Unit test used to potentially lock up due to
incorrect condit ionals
- `clock_recovery_cc`, `crc32_bb`: Accessing the `[0]` element of an
empty vector is UB, even if you don't use the result afterwards.
#### gr-fec
- `polar_encoder`/`_common`: Fixed multiple out-of-bound accesses due
to insufficient vector length checks
#### gr-filter
- `fft_filter`, `filter_delay`: Accessing the `[0]` element of an
empty vector is UB, even if you don't use the result afterwards.
## [3.7.13.3] - 2018-06-13
### Fixed
#### Project Scope
- For non-C++11 compilers, the new cstdint include doesn't work out; conditionalized it.
## [3.7.13.2] - 2018-05-31
### Fixed
#### Project Scope
- Actually bumped version in CMakeLists.txt to 3.7.13.2; the 3.7.13.1 tag was tagged off-branch; maintainer failure to simultaneously push a commit that raises the internal version number to 3.7.14.0: this had to be reverted ASAP.
## [3.7.13.1] - 2018-05-31
### Fixed
#### Project Scope
- Actually bumped version in CMakeLists.txt
## [3.7.13.0] - 2018-05-31
### Fixed
#### Project Scope
- `boost::posix_time::[milli]second` takes integer numbers, and we now at least cast the floats to integers, as Boost 1.67 forced us to realize we're (incorrectly) using floating point her
- CMake: using regex to match compiler against "Clang" now enables correct build on OS X
#### GRC
- Fixed GRC bug which broke WX and Qt (by altering the template code), in multiple (less than awesome) steps
#### gr-blocks
- `float_array_to_int`: int32 limits were wrongly hardcoded.
- Fixed the undefined behaviour happening in `float_to_complex` when accessing the second input_items element in the single-input case
## [3.7.12.0] - 2018-04-01
### Software Engineering
- Changed Changelog format
- Introducing Semantic Versioning
- Change of development model: Rather than merging bugfixes to maint, merging maint to master, and next, if applicable, we'll be moving forward more in a typical management model: Development happens on master, and bugfixes are cherrypicked onto the maint-${RELEASE} branch. More info: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/discuss-gnuradio/2018-02/msg00133.html
- First attempt at having a .clang-format file to improve code contribution style quality. This is Work In Progress.

Performing substitutions during post-patch breaks tools such as mkpatches,
making it very difficult to regenerate correct patches after making changes,
and often leading to substituted string replacements being committed.
This package has long had patches to change "inline" to "static
inline", and somewhat recently added a SUBST_ stanza to do the same
thing, resulting in "static static inline". This commit drops the
patches, and has been build tested on netbsd-8/vbearmv7hf-el and MacOS
(and hence clang).
PKGREVISION++, even though in theory any previous build shouldn't change.

predict is a curses based satellite tracking/orbital prediction program
PREDICT provides real-time satellite tracking and orbital prediction
information to users and client applications in a variety of ways:
Through the system console
Through the command line
Through a network socket
Through the generation of audio speech
Data such as a spacecraft's sub-satellite point, azimuth and elevation
headings, Doppler shift, path loss, slant range, orbital altitude,
orbital velocity, footprint diameter, orbital phase (mean anomaly),
squint angle, eclipse depth, the time and date of the next AOS (or LOS
of the current pass), orbit number, and sunlight and visibility
information are provided on a real-time basis. PREDICT can also track
(or predict the position of) the Sun and Moon. PREDICT also has the
ability to control AZ/EL antenna rotators to maintain accurate
orientation in the direction of communication satellites. As an aid in
locating and tracking satellites through optical means, PREDICT can
articulate tracking coordinates and visibility information as plain
speech.
