Why? It matches this forum area named "Signals Received" and is an unlucky reality since years. It can't be wrong to be at least aware of it. But I agree it should not get too much attention as it is a terrible abuse of ham radio frequenci…

https://forum.kiwisdr.com/uploads/563/37VV25JK2EVI.zip This is an example in very understandable English. I stumbled across it already back in 2020 on 7055 KHz and recorded it. On that day it ran some time as a continuous loop and was repeated at re…

7055 KHz (+-) is since years known to be often illegally used for russian / ukrainian propaganda fights, jamming, "radio war" etc.

Wanderup ... That's not far away from where I was born. 😊

Short feedback - my update story: Debian 8.5, kiwi-version was some steps behind because automatic updates are disabled. Update initiated by "build now" button. It took a very long time, then I ended up with 1.800. Afterwards, my antenna s…

Hi Steven, two things come to mind that you should check: Is your GPS reception okay? Look at the admin-tab "GPS", select "RSSI" graph. Are there enough green bars (= "good" satellites)? (On my kiwi, there are currently…

It appears that, in Firefox only, if you try and open www.short-wave.info instead of http://www.short-wave.info (note explicit http:// prefix) Firefox goes into a redirect loop. I can't confirm that. Firefox is my standard browser, but I never exper…

Same here, no such problem.

First step, as John said: Start by doing "cd; du" and see who is hogging the space. Did you?

Just for completeness, I think there is a 5th option: If you have some shell knowledge and another linux machine with git installed, you can do a git clone https://github.com/jks-prv/Beagle_SDR_GPS.git there. If that works (it did every time I tried…

It's a little hidden. Above the left menu and the Button "New Discussion" there are some small icons near your username (at least on most of the pages). Click on the rightmost symbol (gearwheel) and then select "Edit Profile" and…
-
Indeed, I also didn't find any explicit info on that. But why not quickly try it out? I entered 1, and less than 1 minute later the stream stopped, and I got the following message: Sorry, this KiwiSDR has an inactivity timeout after 1 minutes. Reloa…

Besides other possible reasons, I found that horizontal lines can sometimes appear due to scaling depending on the browser's zoom level. Example: I have older devices with relatively small screen sizes like 1024 x 768 pixels or so. To make better us…

Hi Rob, according to the admin control tab (see bottom right), the first value is for the whole HF range (0..30 MHz), while the latter is for 1.8..30 MHz, thus excluding strong AM broadcast stations and below. Regards, Manfred

I understand. Thank you very much!

The upgrade went smoothly, and my (gpio-based) antenna switch still works as expected, now in the RF Tab. (It was merely inactive and had to be reactivated.) Thanks for this pretty change, it makes the UI even more comfortable and user-friendly! Two…
-
Thanks for your fast answer! So I'll dare now to click "build". 😉 You mention "and others", but I'm not sure what those would be. According to your opening posting, I assumed that, in addition to the antenna switch, also Wat…
-
Maybe I'm thinking too complicated, but I prefer to ask before I change anything. Currently my kiwi is still version 1.665, so the antenna switch (and others) are working the old way as extensions. Now I want to upgrade to the current version which …
-
Please how to block kiwi_nc.py . It's possible enable banning for this name? If one name is blocked, another will be used. Could become an endless game, I fear.
-
Ideally, there should be no response at all for visitors with a blacklisted IP, and the system should be completely "invisible" (like non-existent). As far as I can test with my own kiwi (using a VPN in order to appear with an external IP …
-
By the way, I'd suggest to power the kiwi again via mini-usb for the first time after making the wire connections. So if you should have made a mistake, the current is kind of limited and has less destructive potential. If then all works as before, …
-
Yes, the same. Look at the copper traces near these pins on the kiwi and/or beaglebone; maybe it's visible that both +5V pins are directly connected and both GND pins as well. So it doesn't matter which one you use in each case. Background: The GND …
-
That doesn't matter. Both are connected together anyway. Due to the missing CMC choke, not only the +5V line is interrupted, but also GND. So in addition to the 5 V wire described by John you need also to make a GND wire from the DC jack (outer slee…
-
I tried the same on my kiwi, it works as expected and makes the text red. BTW, the closing </p> tag is missing in your example.
-
Sorry if I misunderstood your question, and good luck!

Will it be possible to order the cape only ? Yes: https://kiwisdr.nz/products/kiwisdr2-cape But it's currently all marked as sold out.
-
Did you read this? I didn't try the update yet, but I can't imagine that it has a bug which causes total "silence" on RF, as nobody else reported such serious symptom.
-
Ross, you could additionally put a schottky diode in forward direction into the 7805's GND line. This would slightly rise the output voltage and give better margins to compensate for losses on traces etc. (Assuming that ~5.3 .. 5.4 V is still okay f…

The KiWi is an excellent product Indeed. And it's even much more than at the time of purchase, thanks to Johns restless work. I often say with a wink that - alongside my e-bike and my camping bus - the kiwi is one of my most important purchases in t…

@AB9IL: You asked John, but I try to answer, as it's pure Linux and nothing kiwi-specific. Do the following settings in /etc/ssh/sshd_config: PasswordAuthentication no PubkeyAuthentication yes (However, I would leave or set PasswordAuthentication to…
