@ERIK_OZ1KVB Sorry for the trouble. But glad you have it working again. You should be able to make backups with Debian 10. I just tested this to make sure it still works. @n8oou v1.600 allows backups to work when autoruns are configured.
-
Okay, if you wait for your Kiwi to auto-update to v1.600 (or restart to manually update) this problem should be fixed. The prior behavior is restored: initially autorun will use all channels of an 8 channel Kiwi (i.e. rx8_wf2 configuration). It's ju…

Probably if the slightest thing is wrong the browser just says "cert expired". Or maybe lighttpd on my end has bugs. Who knows. I haven't got time for stuff like that. Like you say, it's just supposed to work..
-
I'll have a fix for this tomorrow.
-
So there is definitely a problem if you attempt a backup with autoruns running. I'm fixing that now. Workaround: stop them manually before doing a backup. As for restoring from a backup containing an older Kiwi version: It's not completely clear wha…
-
You might as well because the original image is now useless. In the past I always advised against this so you always had a known good (hopefully) backup.

How large of an sd card? When you push the disk free button (yellow) on the admin console tab what's the output? E.g: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mmcblk0p1 3.6G 2.1G 1.4G 61% /

BBG/B, AI or AI-64? What version of Debian? (e.g. 8 or 10). When was the last time you made a backup successfully and what Kiwi version was it running (approximate answer is okay).

I take it that the architecture of the FPGA precludes the (easy) recording/displaying of the ADC "High Water Mark" since it was last read/reset - or is this in some way possible? This is what the new /adc interface does.
-
Except, it didn't. I've had this problem a few times in the past and for the life of me I can't figure out what's wrong (last occurred 25 July 2022). The certs are auto-renewed once a week. Here's their status when the forum was down: root@forum:/ww…

Hello Erik. You must use a different procedure now. It is not possible to use the sd card supplied with the Kiwi to re-flash the Beagle. This is because of changes at debian.org You must download a new, different image (Debian 10) onto the sd card a…
-
And as I tried to explain last time, this is not a bug. Provided the code is going to allow autorun processes to use the waterfall channels (rx0/rx1) at all. There are combinations of user connections arriving and leaving, and autorun restarting, th…
-
The adc_ov= entry from a /status query is really only meant to drive the "OV" indicator on the S-meter. The averaging logic in the FPGA and low-overhead way in which the result is transmitted to the Beagle doesn't have any sort of resoluti…
-
Since you can still get a root shell using the Kiwi admin console tab, just use the Linux passwd command. Type it, the return key, and it will prompt you (twice) to enter a new root password. Use the Kiwi serial number. With Debian 8 you should then…
-
Okay, should be fixed in v1.597 TDoA goes through an extra check so it will "fail fast" if there are no channels. This is to avoid launching kiwirecorder only to have it fail a short time later because all the channels of a TDoA sampling h…
-
The Linux/Beagle root and debian account passwords are very likely to have been set to your Kiwi's serial number: 1680 or perhaps the Kiwi admin password. So try those. This change happened in v1.354 https://forum.kiwisdr.com/discussion/1801/v1-354-…
-
Thanks for pointing this out. v1.596 is available and should fix it. The good news is these messages were only part of the in-memory log and not the log kept on the filesystem.
-
Yes, it is possible that this was some strange one-time event that caused Linux to take the drastic "read-only" action.
-
@nitroengine Yes, should be possible if the extension is configured for "antenna mixing". So an antenna plus attenuation/filter setting could be selected together. The extension could even be enhanced so that antenna mixing could be disab…
-
Ugh. This is not good. When Linux detects severe damage to the filesystem it puts it in read-only mode to prevent the damage from potentially spreading. But the real question is why is your Kiwi trying to write its configuration file every few secon…
-
I didn't look closely at the behavior for 8-ch configurations. I assumed the existing code that puts non-kiwi connections on ch2-7 first would work. But perhaps it doesn't..
-
Okay, please make sure you're updated to v1.595 and let's see if these problems are fixed.
-
I've never used YAND. But have a look at this document: https://www.sdrplay.com/resources/decoding_navtex.pdf It is essential that the radio is tuned so the YAND autotuning function achieves a lock on the audio tones. Make sure the autotuning on box…
-
If you're trying to connect to the admin page from a browser on the same local network as the Kiwi it shouldn't even be asking for the admin password (unless you've disabled local net auto-login which I don't think a lot of people do). Is this a Kiw…
-
Yeah, a bunch of problems here. Including a bug that causes FT8 itself to crash in certain circumstances when restarted after being preempted. Fix soon..
-
If this is true then having any sort of SMPS RFI present (even if confined to below HF) might steal significant dynamic range away from the ADC (more than you might otherwise think). I also suppose this means we should be relieved all the MW/SW broa…
-
I noticed something very interesting while testing on another Kiwi with terrible SMPS RFI (cable to signal gen connected, but gen output disabled). It's the usual SMPS behavior we see where the fundamental carrier (~40 kHz) is unstable but has many …
-
Okay, so v1.594 has a first cut of an ADC level/headroom measurement interface. The interface is somewhat primitive because the FPGA is severely constrained these days (and I'm getting ready to make an addition which makes the situation much worse).…
-
Okay, I've got the SNR process now using the channel from a preemptible autorun. Next release..
-
I've fixed the problem where a redirect incorrectly occurs when preemptible autorun processes exists. But I don't see where there is any kind of redirect "loop". Unless, of course, you have incorrectly setup a redirect loop/cycle to begin …
