Okay - have been able to get away with abuf=0.6 or 0.7, though eventually Qlen creeps up to 8-9 after starting around 4-5. Now have another machine running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS & also see the problem with it. Seems how long it takes can vary, but …

Everything here is on the same switch that's also a WiFi AP for the home that's not got a lot of activity, so I'd be tempted to think that wasn't the source of the creeping additional delay. I didn't realize VAC did sample rate conversion. It's se…

Thanks for the suggestion, Ron. Did that, exited & restarted the browser & after a while the audio was again lagging by the additional second or so that kills copy of FT8. The other day I switched from VB-Audio to VirtualAudioCable to get …

Yes, understood there will be some latency - nature-of-beast. But what's happening is that over time, the delay increases. Even without any users or anything else going on with the Kiwi, the delay eventually builds up to be too much. I wonder if …

Was watching A41ZZ doing alternating CQs on 17 & 15m today & on 15m (received with the Kiwi) after a while, his transmissions started to drift later & later whilst on 17m (received with another SDR) they didn't. I've also seen a few ins…

There's a RPi here waiting for me to have some spare time & since it turns out not to have enough grunt to be a server for one of my other SDRs, I think it's destined to hang off the Kiwi to chew on WSPR or FT8. 73, VR2BG.

When I've noticed this, it's been so long after the spot in question that it can't be seen locally in the log... How often it happens, how many spots don't make it, if it happens on other bands, or if there is any pattern to it happening I can't sa…

Indeed - and I'm not helping matters much by running six WSPR receivers on what is now the only Kiwi QRV in this neck of the woods. The next mental health toy acquisition here will likely be a Red Pitaya, which will free up my Kiwi & other SDRs…

Yes. It's now happened a couple of times when I haven't been in limp-home-mode after working overnight, so I'm pretty sure it isn't me. 73, VR2BG.

Have six WSPR receivers going here, switching between 160/80/60/40/30/20 & 40/30/20/17/15/10 at around 10 & 24 GMT. I've seen sometimes on the status page that I've spotted WSPR on 10m, but nothing shows in the wsprnet.org database. Anyone…

The situation seems to have improved after I further ratcheted down the 24-hour user time limit to something that clearly annoys those doing more worthwhile things than listening to local MW - and left it that way. I will reduce it further after ha…

Belated reply thanks to working shifts... Yes, TDoA map working fine after that update sometime back. So far, haven't run into the grey tile or 180 degree longitude problems, so perhaps they are also no more. That might have been JORN from VK8, b…

Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm already ratcheting down user access time (not good as requires me to do & then undo). With one of the MW transmitter sites ~3.5 km away, I suspect making it inaudible will be a bit of a challenge. And I've …

Sorry, I misunderstood which console - browser instead of Java (somebody's trade war just put an end to my retirement & I'm finding working shifts on the wrong side of 50 to be a challenge). Issue sorted after recent update (1.25something). Ha…

Appreciate the quick response. The Javascript console doesn't open (both the Java & Javascript consoles appear when running something else that uses Java). Google maps does work. Using XP SP3 here with FF 52.9.0esr & JRE 1.8.0_151-b12. 7…
