what I find curious is that Gene (above) has the same time. I run an Odroid XU4 BTW. I reviewed cron skeds, nothing jumps out at me
-
all running good now, only one schedule at the moment. Anything thoughts on the 06:22 phenomena?
-
Recent changes appear very good.... 11 of 12 on 2 kiwi after 30+ hours
-
Thanks!!
-
errors I get when I run it.... I edited calls and IP# only KIWI name unchanged Well I tried to upload errors.txt but board is thwarting me sorry about the dupes... [fixed -jks]
-
installing now but may have an issue. I ran kiwiwspr.sh and let it make a conf file then without an edit ran kiwiwspr.sh -j a,all but it bombed. I had intended to stop it edit for myself and start again. See attached file
-
not random here... always about 0620-4 UTC. That is that all the kiwirecorder tasks die
-
I think the relationship to "diminishing" might have been a coincidence
-
It must be something in Rob's kiwiwspr.sh that's biting me then.
-
I don't think automatic updates = No is honored wrt to shutting down connections in current code.
-
While doing this tetsing i noted that very high signal levels caused the kiwi to act odd. Based upon that, I reduced the level applied to to my 3 kiwis here by 3 dB and now do not see the same loss of birds that I was seeing overtime. I feed all my …

without the watchdog, kiwiwspr.sh frequently stops about 0622Z. However with it running it makes a cron job to change bands by swapping kiwiwspr.ch tricky

John has previously stated that the Kiwi GPS was of lower performance, so no surprise. I did that as part of a bigger effort for my day job where I found that its not unusual for well thought of GPS that are 10+ years old have similar lower performa…

My project for tmrw is to use a Spectracom GSG-6 GPS simulator/generator to map actual signal strength at the Kiwi GPS input to reported RSSI. Report to follow https://spectracom.com/products-services/gnss-simulation/gpsgnss-simulators?gclid=CjwKC…

when you enter the URL without the /admin and you get to the normal user page, can you enter the frequency?

That kinky line headed to the right isn't confidence inspiring! If you have binoculars, you can inspect more "closely" https://youtu.be/JduG0nT1Q3s

just tried your station via TDoA at 10:49Z, seems OK
-
OK, I am seeing on the public one that gets 50% duty cycle at most. My 99+% private kiwirecorder/wspr not so.
-
With my cron management of kiwiwspr.conf, I am listening to 14 bands now, just 8 at a time. Soon to be 14 concurrently.
-
stay wires will work too. Is it related at all to rain/moisture?
-
you can achieve same with large rock.
-
the watchdog works as I frequently see a restart about 0600Z here on my 8 ch wspr only kiwi
-
Rob didn't include 60M in his kiwiwspr script but I found it easy to add. Yesterday I logged ZS1YPJ there so it was worth the add.
-
I always carry a 2-3 sledge hammer and when I get near a pole, give it a whack while listening to an AM radio. That will often help determine the offending pole.
-
turns out a local TV station had their TX go spurious then dead
-
@kd2om had a similar problem
-
I have observed same 10-11 then later 5-6
-
if you're using -w, did you look with ps command to make sure the watchdog is running?
-
For what its worth, here a piece of shell code that will run on the box running kiwiwspr.sh that will yield the current sunspot number. Even with eight channels you have to split up the day to cover all the bands, the number of splits and their limi…

no changes whatsoever within my four walls, and the problem is essentially gone today. With 8 TV and 5 FM stations about 1/2 miles away, "things can happen"
