Just Sayin' £12.05 - limit on shares probably 10+ (I've only used it for 5) (Image) Don't judge the wallpaper, the room is my SDR/workshop.

Cheers Rob, I noticed my graphs stopped ages ago but wasn't bothered, will make a bit more effort with this version. The Kiwi AI updated nice and quickly this time too. I am only running one source so luckily didn't see any logs growing (I did see t…

Seems fairly reliable this Kiwi and Wsprdaemon stuff. Probably should update but I was waiting for the 1000Hrs (Image)

From the two seconds connection I managed looks like a nice view, super quiet location. That to me, feels like a firewall somewhere (ISP?) I connected from one PC then remembered I'd have audio issues there so connected from another very quickly. g…

All the best John, get well soon. Jeff, to be honest it was a timely reminder and good exercise for me, I installed original 1.2 to a BBG, let it upgrade to latest before backup to SD card and then copied that image on my Windows machine with Win32…

LOL, It was a just a jumper from junk so I could disconnect the ground from the N plug and have it stay in one place. I have to find some mechanical way to stop the tube rotating in the box so will probably combine the ground with that. I'm not worr…

Without starting a new thread any YouLoop testers out there? Not saying it is a solution for those who have space or other options but in high noise small city locations it might be a way to actually grab some signals. I have built one out of 8mm A…

Hi Jeff, If you visit the "Kiwi Problems now fixed" section you may see some other users that have seen this but it is rare, (Unless there is only one Kiwi sold evey few months). Normally John (jks) the designer will respond and fix it. I…

Good, I shall sleep better tonight as I feared for one moment we had hit "v6 only routers". One last comment, I tried the built in DUC on the Kiwi a few days ago, worked straight away.
-
That, by the look of it, is IPv6. Your DUC is for IPv4. Assuming the public side still gets an IPv4 address you should have other settings for that. If you go up one menu is there not a "firewall" option, that is the description of where t…

How are you editing the WD configuration file? Did you add the fourth Kiwi as a complete new name and IP in there, or move / rename others? I doubt you are over loading any working Netgear switch purchased in the last twenty years, the problem look…
-
"Ports and cables have been working for over two years" means "will not test" even though that is a possible cause of an issue. Just test it, break the problem down. Think of it this way - at kit install did you measured the met…
-
Things I'd check. Power cycle any network switches or hubs in the line. Check the power supplies to same. Change ports and or cables. If it happens with varied OS on the PI then that makes me think the packets are getting black holed, or wrongly ro…

I figured but didn't want to blur the physics of what is working there. If the bars had even more surface (like ridges), maybe even were bolted to your solid end plate then you could move heat extra in a number of ways. The fact you have some nice b…
-
Respectfully I'd not call that a heatpipe as the term tends to be used for pipes that use evaporation and condensation* to make the thermal transfer potential, greater than that of a solid item. You could clamp some heatpipes down to the heatsink th…

I ordered a Kiwi case from Mouser to try some other options for the stock box. "Expected delivery 1st March", checked yesterday now 27th April (which I doubt). I might have to buy one from the normal UK retailers at twice the price to get…
-
Another possible option is a software router? Pfsense etc? It might even be possible to get alternative firmware (E.G. DD-Wrt/Tomato) for some hardware you already have. Your other comments reminded me to give thanks for my fairly unrestricted livi…
-
OK that makes sense, same location randomisation happens here but I was thrown by the location (doh). I did try installing/running "iptraf" on a Kiwi here to see what connections are passing data, might be interesting on one that is gettin…
-
One thing that confuses me about your screen shot, have you edited the remote addresses? To me 192.168.3.x are all local addresses so not sure of your setup? I only ask as I'm trying to work out how the Kiwi will filter if the remote stations all lo…
-
Hi Rick, To me unless you really are concerned about the odd denied user I'd start with /24 blocks or greater (unless the IP address is in a trusted country with near zero hits on the abuse sites) . In your list you have two in the 149.129.0.0/16 ra…
-
Thanks, from me, for those Rick, always good to know actual sources of problems. I use a list built from known attacks to the works FTP server, includes lots of scanners and most of China (sorry China but seriously!). I think it blocks about 7 milli…
-
Anecdotal - I did try powering through the USB-C and was not happy with the component heating behind the input, it also does not take advantage of the DC filtering on the Kiwi. If you try it measure temperatures and noise levels. I can't remember e…
-
Hi Manfred, The /status link has users so it should be possible to read that directly or even curl from another box or local "curl http://localhost:8073/status | grep users=" I'm pretty sure it has been covered before (by people who under…
-
See if your router is listed on https://portforward.com/router.htm (same brand is often enough) Normally it is a case of logging into your network router and finding the "Port Forward", "Games", or "NAT" settings. Then…

Refresh the web page before doing any more fault finding. Cheers Stu

http://kiwisdr.com/quickstart/ The Kiwi plus BBG draws over 1A and peaks approaching 1.5A 1A is simply not enough, it might run while idle, but will fail under load or momentary glitch as mentioned. Stu

I got caught with under voltage and only then did I read the posts about it and the setup instruction advice (sorry John). Myself and others have used the tiny DC-DC adapters (LM2596), the smallest have variable potentionmeters that are a bit too c…

Looks OK from here 20:00 UTC

From other threads you may have seen, but it is worth repeating, be a little generous with the 5V, I.E. if the Kiwi sees 5.3V at the barrel connector that is OK, 4.95V not. Most supplies dip under load before regulation, the Beagelbone does not like…
