Chuck,repeating lines happen here from time to time. Sometimes grounding the antenna and then ungrounding causes the signals to go away, sometimes not. Random stuff from an RF neighbor somewhere. I often have harmonics from MW band at random times. …

James,I should have also said that the connecting applications, all applications for that matter need to use Pulse audio in the settings, if such a thing is configurable. For example FLDIGI will need to have Pulse Audio specified and if you use WINE…

James,After the application you need to send audio to is started, look in the recording tab of Pavucontrol and select the correct audio stream available to feed the audio. It is usually a monitor of the default sound card. See the screenshot showing…

I've had it working in the past, but since Pulse Audio came out I've been using that with Pavucontrol and that is easier to use in my opinion.https://wiki.debian.org/PulseAudiohttp://0pointer.de/blog/projects/when-pa-and-when-not.html Ron - KA7U

I've used the noip client for several years. It works just fine on a Raspberry PI running Debian.https://www.noip.com/support/knowledgebase/installing-the-linux-dynamic-update-client-on-ubuntu/ Ron - KA7U

James,<CTRL><ALT><LeftClick> brings up this web site: http://www.mwlist.org/ul_login.phpwith the current frequency lookup. It is a very nice addition. Thank you John.Ron - KA7U

I have Ubuntu and openSUSE desktops here. Linux Mint will boot from a USB stick, so the Rosa version of Linux Mint could be downloaded and run from the USB stick. Rosa is not a current version, near as I can tell. "about:plugins" in the U…

I have worked with this for a time now and all is quiet and operating as it should here. So a review of the problems. The KiwiSDR has operated here for quite some time without any boot problems, and then it seemed after version 1.77 or 1.76 it start…

John,I have sent you a message containing the link to a tar.gz containing all the logs. If you need to log into one of these KiwiSDR units, let me know and I'll setup a port forward for you.Ron - KA7U

My newest GPS antenna is this one:http://www.mcmelectronics.com/product/831-3399 Cost delivered $20.44 I have it sitting inside the radio room on a steel cabinet. As you can see from the attached screen shot, it is doing great. Given it has a 5 met…

Phil,I've had a similar issue since the recent updates. A unit with a static IP does as you say, but a unit with DHCP reboots itself over and over. I find it necessary to pull the power, wait a minute, and plug the power back in to restart the KiwiS…

James,I'm not certain about this, but I think that the Navy, Coast Guard, and Marine Corps use tactical call signs that begin with N. So NMY-52 would not be a FCC issued call sign, but rather a Service issued tactical call sign. I'm not real sure wh…

My "Kiwi local" seems to be default to Pacific Time, so 1 hour slow. UTC time is right on. I got curious and set tzdata for my timezone and that messed things up, so it seems the tzdata should be set for UTC. Poked around a bit and think t…
-
James,Maybe John hasn't checked in here. You might send him a personal message. I think setting the Threshold, Slope, and Decay in a given mode, and having it remembered when you come back to that mode, would be very nice. So I too, am hopeful.Ron -…

Bjane,One solution is to use a VPN. OpenVPN would be my choice and I would install it on a router using DD-WRT firmware that hosts the openVPN server. You would then generate sufficient keys for the users you wish to access the network and keep trac…

I try to keep 3 slices open to the public 24/7. Currently, inactivity timeout is set at 45 minutes. Some people tend to camp on a slice, but most of the time, there is an available slice. Some of the local users that have exceptionally high noise le…

James, I have a signal here tonight that might be described as long T and short E but without the character spacing. I think it is called Link 11. http://www.sigidwiki.com/wiki/Link-11 See screenshot below to see if it is what you are hearing and se…

John,You might not need to filter any complete bands, you might find you have 1 or 2 nearby stations that have strong received signals at your location. I would set the WF max slider for 0dB, go to the MW broadcast band and set the waterfall for &qu…

Martin,I looked a bit more and don't think it will pay you to look around at the above files. I read what is happening in Beagle_SDR_GPS/web/kiwi/Makefile and it seems that John has written special code to launch admin.html and mfg.html. I wasn't ab…
-
Martin,I took a look at what is going on in the KiwiSDR folder:/Beagle_SDR_GPS/web/openwebrx and directory:/Beagle_SDR_GPS/web/kiwi and consider admin.html and mfg.html. Then wonder how you could add your pages to this last directory and call it wi…

Good catch there James! I too have a uPNP switch on the router. Now the result is:Automatic add of NAT rule on firewall / router: succeeded Ron - KA7U

I wonder Phil, if you are familiar with <CTRL>+ and <CTRL>- , key combinations when using Firefox and Chrome? These allow the view to zoom in and out. The control box is smaller on the screen when you zoom out and larger when you zoom in…

Martin,The easiest way is to host the webpage elsewhere. Openwebrx is apparently a web server, but I'm not sure about how it works and don't really want to learn how. I think for most purposes, if you don't want to host a standalone web server at ho…

I think it is interference from an unstable transmitter. Not sure what it is.Ron - KA7U

That is a handy chart. Thanks for sharing.Ron - KA7U

John,April fools, right? Anyway I have "Automatic add of NAT rule on firewall / router: no device found".Using an ASUS RT-N16 router flashed with:Firmware: DD-WRT v24-sp2 (08/12/10) megaTime: 20:54:45 up 21:23, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.…

Martin,Yes it could be due to the tonal range. Not speaking the language, I'm adjusting by ear and trying to find what sounds best.Ron - KA7U

I log them center frequency CW. That seems to be in agreement with the Coast Guard site:https://www.navcen.uscg.gov/?pageName=dgpsSiteInfo&bySite Ron - KA7U
