  • I was finally able to solve the issue and I would like to add some details that I believe will be useful to others who run into the same issue. Here they are: The moment one toggles the switch under "Public" that says "Register on rx.…
  • Now I know what's going on now. I recently started filtering out cloud based requests. The filter works fine but has the side effect of cutting out your legitime requests. Are there any fixed IPs I could whitelist, maybe?
  • It always has been in the box it came with but in those days I took it out to address other issues I was having.
  • I think I found the problem: somehow the map falling on the kiwi managed to rip off L407 from the board (see attached picture). I even tried to short it with the tip of a small screw driver and, surprise surprise, signals went back to normal while d…
  • I live half a mile away from the sea but corrosion isn't strong at all. I don't think I ever experienced corrosion on anything indoor before (or even outdoor, for that matter). I wonder if anything can be done about the attenuation issue. I basicall…
  • After disconnecting the board I just reconnected them, nothing else. To be more precise, I disassembled the Kiwi after I slightly touched the top board to see if anything changed, and it did: the moment I pressed the top board the waterfall went fro…
  • Very interesting. Thank you! Did you get the bingzi or the talema version? Whatever that means the cost differs significantly
  • I actually run my Kiwi on https (via Cloudflare) and have this exact issue. Not only I can't use TDoA at all from my Kiwi but other station also can't use it to sample anything. Besides TDoA everything else seems to be working normally.
  • I see what you mean and it happens when power goes out and then comes back: the ramp up of my power supply isn't steep enough and the beagle stays off (this is the reason why I introduced the delay relay in the first place). What happens now, howeve…
  • For whomever might be reading this in the future, here is the solution to my issue. Long story short, turns out Martin was right. The delay relay I have been using for years caused the issue I described above. By using a straight cable the problem w…
  • After another long session of failed boot attempts I have some updates on this issue in the hope they might be relevant to other KiwiSDR 1 users out there. The Ethernet issue does not happen when the Beagle board is powered up by itself while separa…
  • I have access to both the console and ssh. In any event, I sent you an email. regards Alain
  • I actually found some kind of a solution and I am going to post it for others who might have the same problem. Goal: Hide my public IP. As bonus points, I wanted to start using SSL (https) Approach: Use Cloudflare Tunnels, applying SSL termination I…

  • I am indeed using Cloudflare as well. The problem is I can't tell the Kiwi listings to use my new address that starts with 'https'. As you suggested, I saw you can specify an external port. Since I am unable to set https as the main protocol I tried…

  • I am running the ddns client on the Kiwi and I have been for a while. It is very handy to have the ddns client on the kiwi itself... As a quick workaround I am using a different machine which is unfortunate: another possible point of failure, more e…
  • Hello, not sure since when, but the blacklist is now preventing my node from being able to update its ddns enty into duckdns.org. Duckdns is a somewhat popular free service that does dynamic dns and they use amazon: appservers-duckdns-prod-163033957…
  • Just for posterity: I had the exact same issue describe in this thread, solved the same way. I hope pins aren't getting loose!
  • Thanks for the very useful feedback. I suspected the "ramp up" time since the beginning and now my suspicions are even higher. Unfortunately I don't have a scope at this location, but I already ordered a delayed relay.
  • It would be nice if those labels could somehow be dynamically refreshed, crowd sourced and customized by geographical area
  • I will stick to the 5V because the circuitry internal to the battery would increase safety and also provide charging circuitry. In order for my discharging capacitor to do the job, I will try adding a the right combination of diodes (zener) on the r…
  • on a second thought, that capacitor cannot work with the relay. :(
  • My goal is a solution able to avoid short power interruptions under domestic circumstances and I agree that the UPS solution (although easier) seems unnecessarily expensive and potentially noisy. One idea I am exploring is to use something like thi…
  • I have seen many devices like that battery but I am afraid they would all be switching. Wouldn't they?
  • Rob, Yes I noticed the effort to have the daemon run on Macs. Yet, I thought that running it with a single command and without installing anything was a nice thing to have. I didn't want to publish my own image but if I had anyone could have run yo…
  • My tunnel does not present two different public ip addresses. Besides, I have my good reasons for using my own proxy and I prefer not to use the one provided by Kiwi (nor to publish a household IP address to the world). I can live without sdr.hu, n…
  • I wonder if a filter could be built for this specific type of problem...
  • The beaglebone creates an ssh tunnel to an host in the middle and forwards a remote port to port 22. I then connect to the middle host on that port. I have used the same setup for years with a Rapberry PI, never had any issues with it
  • I'd like to point out that setting the eth card to 10-base-T made a huge difference in terms of noise. Thanks Ron for letting me know. I also would like to point out that living in NYC is probably one the worst spots in the world in terms of noise, …
  • It could be filesystem/eMMC damage, in my opinion. I was thinking the same. For now I am restarting kiwid twice per day (I really cannot afford sshd to go down on me as this is a remote setup!)
