After cloning this repository and connecting an RTL-SDR dongle to your computer, you can run the server:
./openwebrx.py
You can now open the GUI at <a href="http://localhost:8073">http://localhost:8073</a>.
Please note that the server is also listening on the following ports (on localhost only):
- ports 4950 to 4960 for the multi-user I/Q servers.
Now the next step is to customize the parameters of your server in `config_webrx.py`.
