+#   CaribouLite Simple RF Sweep Generator for CaribouLite HiF channel
+#	Sweeps a range of RF frequyencies on HiF channel (1-6GHz capable)
+#	  User interface sets sweep start freq (in KHz), end freq (in KHz), sweep rate (in ms), and step size (in Hz)
+#	  by K7MDL March 7, 2024
+#	  derived from soapy_synth.py example program
+#	  requires PySimpleGUI - use pip to download anmd install the package
