  • I've re-enabled the v1.709 update, which should do a v1.800 upgrade, for all Kiwis except those running Debian 8 (and also limited to those with admin passwords beginning with the letter 'a' through 'h'). The fix to prevent admin connection looping …
  • The autonotch settings will appear after you select either the wdsp or LMS noise filters. Scroll the audio tab down a little bit after the selection.
  • Okay, but is that a WiFi inside your location or a wireless connection from your ISP?
  • Yeah, there's something really wrong there. Half the files load and the later half all get HTTP 404s (not found). What type of ISP is your new connection? (e.g. 4G, fiber, starlink etc.) On the admin webpage tab, half way down on the left, set this …
  • @barneyuk That's very odd. In general the latest update has been working fine. Since an admin connection is not stable about all we can do here is to allow me to ssh into the Beagle directly and see what's going on. But that requires you to NAT-map …
  • If it's a Kiwi-1 on the user page RF tab when you hover over the RF attn slider or buttons you should get a popup that says "no RF attenuator on KiwiSDR 1". On the admin config tab the "Allow RF attenuator switching by:" menu sho…
  • When doing the rebase to v1.8xx the build time is very long. At least 1.5 hours depending on the speed of your Internet connection. This is because all the cached files must be rebuilt and the large static files initially downloaded. Do not interrup…
  • v1.709 attempts the git rebase on a larger subset of Kiwis: Those having admin passwords starting with the letters "a" through "d". This is to limit any possible damage as well as test the loading on the forum server which is the…
  • Please email your Kiwi admin password to support@kiwisdr.com (set a temp pwd if you like)
  • 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).
