No. wfview is cool like that. It provides a pseudo terminal device that other programs, such as flrig and fldigi, can use to maintain control of the radio. wfview passes any commands from these other programs to the radio using a software CI-V bus. In the future, I would also like to add support for native TCP/IP control such as the XML RPC that fldigi and flrig support.
**I want to use it remotely. How can I do that?**
Basically, you need to run wfview within a VNC session. I will add detailed steps later, for now just google how to make a vnc server. X11 forwarding does not work well with all the data updating on the spectrum waterfall. If you want to hear the audio (and who wouldn't?), see the [Audio Streaming wiki](https://gitlab.com/eliggett/wfview/-/wikis/Audio-Streaming).
**Why is the spectrum so slow?**
Unfortunately, Icom runs the spectrum data over the UART significantly slower than the USB port is capable of handling data. This results in about 10 updates per second. If it looks slow, it is. You can make the window larger to make it feel faster ;-). You can also drag the divider between the plot and the waterfall image for more flexibility.
