PMSE → WWB
Ofcom licence to Workbench
What it does
Upload an Ofcom PMSE radio-microphone licence schedule PDF and get back files you can import into Shure Wireless Workbench: a documented frequency list, a CSV reference sheet, and an experimental native show file.
The work continues in RFutils, where the same PDF parser has been validated against a real Ofcom licence and runs in the browser. This repository remains a working standalone app; its own domain is now a landing page pointing there.
- WWB frequency list (.txt) in Shure's documented import format — the safe option
- Reference sheet (.csv) mapping each frequency to a suggested channel name and its Ofcom coordination and fee group
- Experimental .shw show file with channels already named and frequencies already assigned
- In-page receiver editor: group frequencies into receivers of any channel count from 1 to 8, name every channel, set or auto-assign IPs
- Self-hostable: a multi-arch container image for amd64 and arm64, with an Unraid template, so the converter runs on your own machine
Where it stands
Field proven on real Ofcom PMSE licence schedules, and superseded by RFutils for new work. Released at v0.2.1: since v0.1.0 it gained the container packaging, an About window with a version in it, the support footer, and a versioned image published from the tag — the conversion itself is unchanged. The .shw generator is built from a structurally-verified Shure AD4Q-A (G56) fragment and refuses to build for any other band, since G56 is the only one with a verified template. Shure does not publish the format — open the output in Wireless Workbench and check it before a show.
