Any reason that you couldn't use rtl_tcp instead?
It's pretty common to run rtl_tcp on a remote RPi server,
then use a different, local computer to host GQRX.
Squelch, frequency changing, and other features should be
available via that protocol presently.

Good evening -
I am trying to make modifications to rtl_fm so that I can change
frequencies, gains, modulation types, and squelch values on the fly (and
thus avoiding a restart).
Its unclear to me what functions need to be called in order to apply
changes to the sdr device so that I can do the above. The rtl_fm code isnt
documented so I dont have much to go off of...
GQRX doesnt run reliably on any RPi3's I've tried so I hoping to use a
modified rtl_fm in its place. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks :)
