Did you restart the Apache service?
-
The my.kiwisdr.com is a great addition, single click and it should present your local network links (access, and admin links) if the Kiwi has booted. It is very simple, no "messing" works well from my experience.

Bjarne, "But what it can be used to, is another question..." it seems the answer is "As a simple user not much" unless you use the API commands. I've got an internal one running just to see how it works and what I could learn fr…

Ulli, On a VM I was not getting the images written until "sudo chown -R myusername:myusername /var/www" I'm not saying that is the correct way just what worked for my internal server. On an Apache server with other services running takin…

Really useful for quick checks (and lots of other uses built on it), many thanks for adding that.
-
Have everything bar the discone, oh one just fell into the basket, that's lucky. Really like the idea of the wider downconverter too, just need to get it up to about 100GHz to be really useful to those near masts. Currently I combine Solarham, WSPR…

Interesting, I do wonder what the motivation is, could be just people testing their coding skills I suppose with no malicious intent. If the range of IP's is similar just block a wider IP range. E,G. rather than 47.88.219.24/24 do 47.88.0.0/16 If yo…

Hi Martin, I'll be very interested in your observations. Slightly ironic to be reverse engineering Chinese stuff (reverse engineered from elsewhere? chips defaced as they'd prefer nobody could work out where from?). Right going to stick the MLA ou…
-
The weird thing with mine was my "normal location noise, mains-earth" was less apparent, wasnt really aware of the noise floor being too high but the rough common mode noise didnt seem to hit the MLA-30 as bad as the Wellbrook. Even more…

It's nice to know the platform is still growing while retaining the pinout. Over here it is listed at £114 currently, someone has to test the RF profile but I can just about fend off the buy button for now. Mind you if the hams with big gardens star…

The original install instructions should work I assume. https://github.com/OH1KK/KiwiSDR-antenna-switch-extension#installation

Good place to start as it shows the first things to try and is from the main man. http://forum.kiwisdr.com/discussion/1317/no-update-stacked-in-the-1-212-version-filesystem-fixed-with-fresh-git-checkout/p1

I have found the barrel connector to be a weak link, I purchased some "quality" leads from Ebay and the lead was indeed multple strand, decent copper and very flexible, but inside the connector moulding they had not made a good solder join…
-
Good area to question - I found powering the BBBW I had to use the port on the BeagleBone itself and even then it was fussy about DC leads. I did consider trying to power that through both ports but figured that was fraught with loop problems and ne…

via the SSH connection if you run "cdp" before "ku" that should work. The command needs to be run from the right directory I believe Stu
-
Hi Hajo, Can you ssh to it and run the "ku" command? http://kiwisdr.com/quickstart/index.html#id-login Cheers Stu
-
Anecdotal answer only From other SDR forums/threads I picked up the "raise the the gain until the noise floor lifts by about 5db". That might have been more for VHF but I started to use that as a baseline for HF tests. To test the affect o…
-
I played with the connman configurations and ensured that the /etc/network/interfaces was minimal but I did leave the USB manual configuration and references to eth0 dhcp in there, might remove the latter. If I left the eth0 manual details it did in…
-
Must be some time event as went back to it this time and straight in. (3.19) I have to say using connman seems to give wierd conflicts, E.G. having the Ethernet as static seemed to stop the WiFI coming up (might be false assumption>>). I thin…
-
I got round to pulling a couple of mini wifi dongles out of the draw. Not recommending this one but it does work Edimax N150 (EW-7811n) I bought two for Raspberry Pi use but the range was no better than the stock antenna inside the all metal enclosu…
-
There are other options for externally logging traffic too like the packet sniffer in the Mikrotik routers. Set it to "streaming", filter on SDR IP(s), then set Wireshark to read the stream and filter as required.
-
It must be a bit of trade off, verbosity against CPU cycles and flash memory writes (if logging locally to disk). I'm sort of with you on the "tell me I'm an adult" level of logging but I doubt it has been intentionally done to obscure con…
-
I suppose you could just drop the speed, make the change, bring it back up?
-
What OS/Browser, have you muted it (keyboard M) or on the browser tab, what modes?
-
Thanks for that - off with "rm" in hand
-
Question mainly for Rob, On the noise graphs. Is there an easy way to cull unwanted graphs? I set up a few Kiwi definitions so that I could easily identify cape and enclosure, over time and through various tests I have managed to generate lots of gr…
-
That is too posh/high-brow for me ;-) The type I was referring to was the car gps repeater, no galvanic link between Kiwi and external antenna, quite hard for common mode to get accross that gap (I hope). Google search term "gps repeater car&qu…
-
I've gone over to GPS repeaters partly due to the risk of pickup or radiation from the GPS coax. My stock puck antenna was working but not well, turns out coax had a nick that allowed water ingress. I cut that coax down to about1m and put a new 90de…
-
I get it, I often kick myself off my own Kiwi (or disconnect/shut it down) between changes to have a reference frame, then use the green copy shortcut to start a new instance. Flicking between browser tabs is a great way to visually compare changes.

I think when the case was being tested it was found that grounding via that end (and fixings) gave the lowest noise in the test setup.
