Hi, thank you for maintaining this project — the README is a great overview of the monorepo. While following it on a fresh clone I ran into a few small accuracy issues and would like to propose fixes. This PR only touches the root README.md.

Problem

  1. Several README links point into newsdr/ and docs/ (the newsdr section's five scripts and five technique documents, docs/plutosdr_setup_guide.md, docs/sdr_radios.md, and one Documentation Index entry). Both directories are listed in .gitignore, so they are not present in a fresh clone and the links show 404 on GitHub.
  2. The example python sdradi/sdr_auto_tune.py --mode rx does not match the script's CLI: sdradi/sdr_auto_tune.py defines only --ip (default ip:192.168.3.2), so the documented command exits with unrecognized arguments.

Fix

  • Kept all of the original sections and wording; only converted the affected links to inline code and added a short italic note that those directories are not currently tracked in the repository (assuming that is intentional — happy to adjust if you would rather commit those directories instead).
  • Replaced the auto-tune example with the minimal valid invocation python sdradi/sdr_auto_tune.py and mentioned --ip as the optional device selector.

Verification

  • Cross-checked every markdown link target and command path in README.md against git ls-files: all in-repo references now resolve to tracked files.
  • Confirmed against the scripts' argparse that the other examples are correct as written (sdr_video_commv2_lab.py --mode loopback is valid; radarappwdevice5.py needs no required arguments), and that the referenced diagnostic scripts and configs all exist.

Please let me know if you would prefer different phrasing for the notes, or if the newsdr//docs/ content is meant to be tracked — glad to rework this accordingly.

… CLI flag

The root README linked to several files under newsdr/ and docs/ that are
not tracked in the repository (both directories are listed in .gitignore),
so the links render as 404s on GitHub. It also showed
"python sdradi/sdr_auto_tune.py --mode rx", but that script's argparse
only defines --ip, so the documented command exits with an error.

This change keeps all of the original sections and wording, and only:
- converts the dead newsdr/ and docs/ links to inline code, with a short
  italic note that those directories are not currently tracked;
- replaces the sdr_auto_tune.py example with a minimal valid invocation
  (no flags; --ip mentioned as the optional device selector).

Verification: every remaining markdown link target and command path in
README.md was checked against git ls-files; all 57 in-repo references now
resolve, and sdradi/sdr_video_commv2_lab.py --mode loopback was confirmed
valid against its argparse (choices include "loopback").
