  • Hi Loyd. Please set a temporary admin password and email it to support@kiwisdr.com and I can take a look.
  • This is completely pointless. And I'm not going to waste any time by responding to people who ask questions based on this. Go do something productive and just wait for the fix I'm working on.

  • Oh boy, I hardly know where to begin. There are at least 3 RFI problems from switch mode power supplies (SMPS). One of which is intermittent. Then three broadband noise sources. Two of which are intermittent. And an absolutely strange problem I've n…
  • Think I found your Kiwi-2 via the proxy service. But it has a user password enabled. If you want me to take a listen please email the user (not admin) password to support@kiwisdr.com. Set a temporary password if you don't want to reveal your permane…
  • Thanks. Global blacklist updated..
  • "Tick-tick" is very likely a nearby electric fence charger. Is that a possibility where you are?
  • Really need to hear what this sounds like. From the waterfall I'm guessing this is some sort of arcing resulting in wide-band RFI. Like from power line problems. But really need to listen to tell. Is it available from the Internet via its serial num…
  • Emailed you about the Kiwi-1 / v1.462 issue. The admin log tab has to be a summary of connection activity rather than a (truncated) list of connections as found in the log tab (or a more complete list as found in the Linux system log). If it's a lis…
  • That's not how it works. When you're in "aperture = auto" mode the signal strengths in the waterfall define where the WF min/max points are defined. WF floor/ceil lets you add/subtract amounts onto that. Scroll down in the WFn tab to see t…
  • Ordinarily I'd try and be a little more helpful. But there's an unbelievable amount of serious stuff going on at the moment. Probably as serious as it's been over the last ten years of this project..
  • Forget trying to update for now. I'm working on a fix, but it will take some time to develop.

  • You can't do a manual calibration if GPS cal is on and working. Check the control panel "stats" tab to see if the GPS is correcting. "ADC clock" line, "avgs" counter non-zero. Don't use CB carriers to determine if Kiwi …
  • The new git "rebase" I'm working on reduces the size of the Kiwi repo by about 90% to 55 MB. So that should fix this problem.

  • That's right. It didn't happen before with Debian 8. You can't by default connect as root anymore due to enhanced security in Debian 9 and beyond. Get a root shell by logging in as Debian and doing a sudo su. Use the Kiwi serial number as password i…
  • 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. But Safari and Chrome worked fine for me in that case. Guess I need to …
  • /root/.bashrc can be overwritten by a Kiwi update as that file is considered to be part of the Kiwi distro. Put your private shell customizations in /root/.bashrc.local
  • Your journal file is 353MB. Do a "m clean_logs".

  • You know, some of you guys need to consider your audience before you make comments like this. You made an alias command how? Where? We can't read your mind.
  • Well, it's not there. Who knows what you've done. You should probably start over. Re-flash from scratch using the latest Debian 11.9 image by following the instructions here: http://kiwisdr.com/info/#id-net-reflash

  • Ugh. There's got to be some other log file(s) taking space for there to only be 35MB of free space. When I do this on a Kiwi running Debian 8.5 I have 1.4GB free with a /root looking like this. Try: "cd /var/log; du". Show us the entries t…

  • For future reference, "M gil" is invalid. Perhaps "m git"? Although this can be done equivalently by the "gup" alias (git update).
    in v1.707 Comment by jks November 7
  • Well, your filesystem is full. See that "Avail 0, Use% 100%" in there? Have to figure out why that is. Start by doing "cd; du" and see who is hogging the space.

  • Of the two VPS's the latest one supports https connections. And certain services have been migrated to it. That's why the forum supports https for example. I've been moving things there, but some services are difficult to move for various reasons. S…
  • I've done that too. I even placed the tar file on kiwisdr.com so I could use a simple wget on the target kiwi.
  • Always been the case. It's complicated..
  • Thanks guys, but my VPS service is not the priority at the moment. I have to get this disastrous git situation under control before every Kiwi on the planet becomes bricked.

  • No. But I get charged on bulk transfer amount, not rate. The rate is relatively low since it's just x-hundreds of Kiwi audio/waterfall channels. Averages roughly 20Mb/s (both in/out since it's mostly proxy traffic vs everything else).

  • I've already got two VPS that I'm paying for (website, proxy service, forum, file server, TDoA backend, ...) Plenty of storage, but the bandwidth costs are depressing (over 3.5TB/month now due to the included proxy service with Kiwi-2). What's scari…

  • Ugh. This situation is much worse than I thought. I forgot that git keeps deltas of all changes to files so you can step to an arbitrary commit date and see the files as they were. But this means for the new ~30MB binary update files it simply keeps…

  • Okay, let me do a v1.707 release that addresses both these issues before too many people follow this procedure. Thank you!
