This is the worst thing I have ever seen (related to Kiwi front-end damage). Customer sends Kiwi back. Says it was installed at a remote location with other SDRs and no co-located transmitters. Died after a few weeks. I open it up, start some measur…

Yes, you can re-flash using the Beagle by itself. You'll have to use a different power connection as the BBG has a micro-USB as the 5V input vs the Kiwi's DC barrel jack.
-
I should also mention in connection with the voltage drop post above. I knew about the problem many years ago. One day I made up some short cables out of some random "speaker wire" I had where it wasn't immediately obvious what the wire ga…
-
The way the code is currently, if you use a "%20" that gets translated into a space character in the Kiwi configuration itself, which is no good. What I've done is made the "+" character get translated into a space. This is a URL…

Ugh. I don't understand. That code doesn't work at all. I tested it with Glenn's V/UHF converter and it worked fine. I'm sure of it. But looking at it now there's no way. It does everything wrong. Give me a bit to fix it. I'll have it for the next r…

The proxy-related problem I mentioned earlier causes a proxy client restart when you click on the "click to (re)register" button on the admin connect tab for versions earlier than v1.803. So that wouldn't directly explain what's being seen…
-
You can have the best linear power supply in the world and still have Beagle reboots because the power cable has too much IR^2 loss causing momentary voltage brownout when the Beagle has a fast current spike. Either too small a wire gauge (smaller t…

It's not that spaces are removed. Spaces are the delimiter between multiple curl command invocations (see: http://kiwisdr.com/info/#id-antsw) You can't use a space in a curl URL anyway without %-escaping it (i.e. %20), so I don't understand how this…

@PSO Hey, you're right! When we switched github repos from "Beagle_SDR_GPS" to "KiwiSDR" it never occurred to me to change the links on the kiwisdr.com website and documentation. So I've done that now. Link to the KiwiSDR CHANGE…

Works fine for me (Kiwi-1, v1.803, Debian 8.5). Have you customized your band menus at all? Is this a Kiwi I can get to from the net? If not, can you open the browser Javascript console and look for any obvious error messages please? (I can tell you…
-
If this Kiwi is accessible from the Internet easiest thing is to email the URL and admin password to support@kiwisdr.com and I'll fix it for you. Is what you show being done from the admin console or a direct ssh connection? If ssh I can give you ma…

Wow, that's awful. But I'm pretty sure this is a serious power supply, grounding or some sort of RFI/EMI problem. Look at the screenshots below. Typical terrible SMPS RFI starting at 43 kHz with harmonics running up through LF (and probably higher).…
-
If I use the FSK extension "scope" mode for a test DSC signal I can clearly see in 20 kHz (3ch) mode the zero crossing detector is not quite right compared to 12 kHz mode. This might explain why it works on very strong signals but not weak…
-
The waterfall(s) may run slower. Depending on the total number of connections.
-
In light of the above, do I think it is a problem with the audio signal in the 3-channel version? Sure seems that way. I'll look into it. Thanks for the clarification.
-
I didn't design these. Ask sales@kiwisdr.nz
-
Well, hard to say. But all those parity errors and "no end-of-sequence (EOS)" on the Kiwi-2 probably means an impaired receiving condition compared to the Kiwi-1. That is most likely a mistuning of the signal causing the FSK filters to giv…
-
Okay, I'll see what I can do. I haven't looked at that stuff in a long time. Hopefully 6G turns out better than DRM did, lol.
-
Is this information currently shown in Dream? (I can't get Dream to run on my Mac anymore, sigh)
-
The fun just never stops, lol. A couple systems running Debian 8 had the v1.801/802 update fail when using the new binary update scheme. Some sort of shared library problem. Wasn't an issue when compiled from sources. So for now I have disabled bina…
-
It might be easiest if you could map port 22 (ssh) on your router to point to this Kiwi. But first change the debian account password to something besides the serial number and send it to our support email. Do this for the root account as well since…
-
Can you open a Windows command screen and "ssh debian@192.168.1.220" using the 4781 serial number as password?
-
It last booted 1 feb according to the my.kiwisdr.com thing. The check-open-port function was used a couple of times. The community DX list downloaded a bunch of times. Last activity feb 4. Then nothing. But I wouldn't expect much more than this. Exc…
-
What's the serial number? I can check the logs on kiwisdr.com and see if it sent any info there (e.g. if the "my.kiwisdr.com" feature is enabled or if it's a public Kiwi and is trying to register, or if it's setup to use the proxy service)…
-
Okay, I think the new admin password reset scheme is working well. See image below. The option will appear only if you connect from your local network. Not from an Internet connection (e.g. not from a Kiwi-2 serial number based proxy connection: 2xx…

Here's an example you can put in the HTML section of an iframe instance. Be sure to check the "Allow iframe to tune Kiwi" checkbox. So the onclick event just calls tune() which uses the built-in postMessage function to send a tuning string…
-
I should also mention that there is a related bug: You can enter up to 16 instances in the admin interface. But only the first 8 appear in the extension menu. This has been fixed for the next release.
-
From our documentation: In case you are unfamiliar with the process of installing software on a Beagle here's how it works. The micro-SD card is what's known as a 'flasher'. Each time you boot your Beagle from the micro-SD card it will copy its cont…
-
I thought of a way to add an admin password reset function. It has to be implemented very, very carefully so as not to cause security problems. I'll try and have this ready for the next release.
-
So the problem was that on the admin iframe page you had two instances set to the same "extension menu entry" name. This is not a problem on the iframe page, because the two are distinguished by the instance number (0-15). But on a user co…
