- Fix SSE fanout thread AttributeError when source queue is None during
interpreter shutdown by snapshotting to local variable with null guard
- Fix branded "i" logo rendering oversized on first page load (FOUC) by
adding inline width/height to SVG elements across 10 templates
- Bump version to 2.26.0 in config.py, pyproject.toml, and CHANGELOG.md

ensureModeScript() used document.body.appendChild() to load lazy mode
scripts, but the preload for ?mode= query params runs in <head> before
<body> exists, causing all deep-linked modes to silently fail.
Also fix cross-mode handoffs (BT→BT Locate, WiFi→WiFi Locate,
Spy Stations→Waterfall) that assumed target module was already loaded.

Several modes didn't pass sdr_type to claim_sdr_device(), defaulting to
'rtlsdr' and triggering an rtl_test USB probe that fails for HackRF with
a confusing "check that the RTL-SDR is connected" message.
- Add sdr_type to frontend start requests for rtlamr, weather-sat, sstv-general
- Read sdr_type in backend routes and pass to claim/release_sdr_device()
- Add early guard returning clear "not yet supported" error for non-RTL-SDR
hardware in modes that are hardcoded to RTL-SDR tools
- Make probe_rtlsdr_device error message device-type-agnostic

SSTV mode was slow to populate next-pass countdown and ISS location map
due to uncached skyfield computation and sequential JS API calls.
- Cache ISS position (10s TTL) and schedule (15min TTL, keyed by rounded lat/lon)
- Cache skyfield timescale object (expensive to create on every request)
- Reduce external API timeouts from 5s to 3s
- Fire checkStatus, loadImages, loadIssSchedule, updateIssPosition in parallel via Promise.all

Adds a phosphor-persistence waveform scope showing audio RMS/peak
levels during ISS SSTV and General SSTV decoding, matching the
existing pager scope pattern with a purple color scheme.

SSTV was not claiming/releasing SDR devices through the centralized
registry, so the device state panel always showed the device as idle
during SSTV use. Added claim_sdr_device/release_sdr_device on the
backend and reserveDevice/releaseDevice on the frontend, matching the
pattern used by all other modes.

Users can now manage decoded SSTV images with download and delete actions
accessible from hover overlays on gallery cards, the full-size image modal
toolbar, and a "Clear All" button in the gallery header. Both ISS and
General SSTV modes are supported.

slowrx is a GTK GUI app that doesn't support CLI usage, so the SSTV
decoder was silently failing. This replaces it with a pure Python
implementation using numpy and Pillow that supports Robot36/72,
Martin1/2, Scottie1/2, and PD120/180 modes via VIS header auto-detection.
Key implementation details:
- Generalized Goertzel (DTFT) for exact-frequency tone detection
- Vectorized batch Goertzel for real-time pixel decoding performance
- Overlapping analysis windows for short-window frequency estimation
- VIS header detection state machine with parity validation
- Per-line sync re-synchronization for drift tolerance

Open Notify API (api.open-notify.org) is frequently unreliable,
causing 5-second timeout delays on every ISS position request.
Promote wheretheiss.at as the primary API in both satellite.py
and sstv.py, demoting Open Notify to fallback.

- Add DopplerTracker class using skyfield for satellite tracking
- Calculate and apply Doppler shift correction (up to ±3.5 kHz at 145.800 MHz)
- Background thread monitors shift and retunes rtl_fm when >500 Hz drift
- New /sstv/doppler endpoint for real-time Doppler info
- Start endpoint accepts latitude/longitude for automatic tracking
Also:
- Add slowrx installation to setup.sh (source build for macOS, apt for Debian)
- Sync observer location to dashboard-specific localStorage keys

- Fetch live ISS position from Open Notify API (primary)
- Fallback to "Where The ISS At" API if primary fails
- Remove dependency on potentially outdated local TLE data
- Calculate observer elevation/azimuth using spherical geometry
- Both APIs are free and don't require authentication
This fixes the issue where the ISS position was incorrect due to
the local TLE data being almost a year out of date.

- Add /sstv/iss-position endpoint that calculates ISS position directly
- Update JS to use new endpoint instead of /satellite/position
- Returns lat, lon, altitude, and optionally elevation/azimuth from observer

The test_client approach was failing silently. Now calculates ISS
passes directly using skyfield within the sstv route.

Includes new Space dropdown in navigation grouping Satellite and SSTV modes.
