Profile Management

Profiles save and restore radio state. AetherSDR supports all three profile types.

Profiles Menu

Access via Profiles in the menu bar:

  • Profile Manager... — open the management dialog
  • Import/Export Profiles... — (placeholder)
  • Separator
  • List of global profiles — click to load instantly (checkmark shows active)

Profile Types

Global Profiles

Save the entire radio state: frequency, mode, filter, TX settings, DSP, antenna, etc. Loading a global profile changes everything at once.

Transmit Profiles

Save TX-specific settings: power, EQ, compressor, mic settings. Multiple TX profiles can be saved for different operating scenarios (contest, ragchew, digital).

Microphone Profiles

Save mic input settings: source, gain, bias, boost, compander level. Useful when switching between different microphones.

Profile Manager Dialog

Open via Profiles → Profile Manager...

Tabs: Global, Transmit, Microphone, Auto-Save

For each tab:

  • New Profile Name — text field for creating new profiles
  • Load — apply the selected profile
  • Save — save current state to the selected profile (or create new with the name field)
  • Delete — remove the selected profile (with confirmation)
  • Double-click — load profile

Auto-Save

The Auto-Save tab controls whether TX and Mic profile changes are automatically saved. When enabled, any change you make is immediately persisted to the active profile.

Commands

All profile operations are stored on the radio, not client-side:

  • profile global save "name" / load / delete
  • profile transmit create "name" / save / delete
  • profile mic create "name" / save / delete
