Prevent SatNOGS autostart at boot

SatNOGS Software
1

Hi, I have a second Satnogs client which I also use for rtl_tcp source (station 1433).

As soon as I power this Pi it starts the Satnogs automatically but most of the times there is no sdr device attached or available, and I would like to prevent the Satnogs to start automatically.

I checked some of the usual ways to start programs at boot to disable this but I was unable to find out how it’s started.

Any help on this ?

Thanks,
Ben

Hi Ben,

You can disable the satnogs-client at system startup with:

sudo systemctl disable satnogs-client.service

Then you can manually start the client as needed with

sudo systemctl start satnogs-client.service
