When you power-up the Kiwi with an Ethernet connection that has Internet service an automatic update should start automatically. Here's how you can tell: Connect to the admin page. Perhaps at kiwisdr.local:8073/admin or by ip address if kiwisdr.loca…

Yes, our documentation explains this. That the sd card will become a "flasher". An sd card that, when booted from on the Beagle, will simply cause a bootable copy of the Kiwi distribution to be installed on the Beagle on-board eMMC flash m…

A point to note for other experimenters. The frequency scale is out if the KiWi "Max receiver frequency" is set to 32MHz rather than the more standard 30MHz. How so? If I setup 32 MHz mode with high-side injection set. Then set the sig gen…

If you had done this from a terminal program that properly interpreted UTF-8 (Unicode) you'd see the same special symbols as you do on rx.kiwisdr.com for that same info.

I used kiwi_nc successfully to stream IQ samples to dumphfdl while developing the Kiwi HFDL extension. Take a look at the "dumphfdl" target in kiwiclient/Makefile What you're doing looks okay to get a single channel (mono) without compress…

Try running 22m as the only autorun on your Kiwi. Running 6 of them is probably causing all the decoding to be starved for cpu cycles. You might be missing 22m decodes because of that. Although if you have a non-zero decode count in the connection l…

Now I really feel badly about starting this thread and causing all this work for you. Are you kidding? You helped me find a major, major bug. All Kiwis using WSPR autorun have not been successfully uploading ANY low power (< 10 dBm) spots prior t…

Just put "NAVTEX" in the "Extension" field of the DX label. Then the NAVTEX extension should be automatically started when you click on the label. Also, the label will turn purple when moused-over instead of the usual yellow to i…

I did attempt to update it with Debian version 11.3 but it failed as it never powered off, even after an hour. You can't do this! You can't run random Debian images and expect the Kiwi software to work. There is NO validated D11 for BBG/BBB that has…

Also, I have to ask: This is a genuine KiwiSDR board (not a clone) running on a BeagleBone Green or Black, right?
-
Most everyone who has problems initially clears them by re-flashing using the sd card and then waiting long enough for the full update over the network. We have seen this many times. So insert the sd card and power up (with the network disconnected)…

Fixed in v1.552
-
Okay, pretty sure I found it. Fix in the next release.. 🙄 Thanks everyone. Much appreciated.
-
Perhaps if other KiwiSDR users could add select the ISM_13 WSPR extension and see if they are receiving and spotting to the WSPRnet that would really help. As shown by Glenn and myself above we have such a case, K3KQ. He used a Kiwi and successfully…

Login as root. cdp cp unix_env/kiwi.config/dist.kiwi.json ../kiwi.config/kiwi.json Type that very carefully. Especially the two dots before the slash: ../ Within 60 - 90 secs you should be able to connect again. Connect to the admin page and reconfi…

Well, I looked at this for a long, long time and I can't see anything wrong. I did find one other Kiwi that has uploaded 22m / 13.56 MHz spots in the last few days. I had to download the gigantic monthly .csv file because that's the only place the s…
-
Oh wait, I see someone else using a "1X" prefix call. Is this so as not to use ham calls outside the ham bands? Must be. Is your reporter field set to "1X3ROM" when you upload spots for 22m? (and presumably not uploading spots fo…

Lots of spots on wsprnet.org with received call "1X3ROM" (grid EN58). Nothing with that call as reporter though (filtered out?) Are you configured correctly? 2022-08-06 00:20 1X3ROM 13.555464 -16 0 EN58 0.005 K5MO-1 FM05 1662 147…

I assume the machine you're running the browsers on is using Windows because you talk about PuTTY, WinSCP etc. Did you have a Windows update recently? What version of Windows do you use? (e.g. W10, W11) The use of "kiwisdr.local" with Wind…

Only 14 because it's limited by the amount of logic that can be crammed into the FPGA. The FPGA cannot hold another rx channel (when there are zero waterfall channels) beyond 14. It's always a race between FPGA logic space, SPI interface utilization…
-
Quite right Martin. And I have tested a reversal to the audio path as well.
-
Okay, I did this as it turned out to be extremely easy to do (rarely the case). In the next release the N key does it. There is also a new entry "VFO A=B" at the end of the frequency memory menu after "clear all". There's just no…
-
So I have been working on most of these issues. Not ready quite yet, but I have a version of kiwirecorder and the Kiwi server that does a number of new things: Can start the DRM extension on the Kiwi side and save decoded DRM audio to .wav files jus…
-
Well, the above is not quite right. The waterfall and audio channels each have their own DDC, hence separate DDS(NCO) for each. So I suppose you could reverse the I&Q for the waterfall. But it turns out the waterfall code on the Beagle has an FF…
-
I think this can be done fairly easily (it has been requested before). Rather than reversing the I/Q of the DDS going into the mixer I think I would instead simply reverse the output bins of the waterfall FFT. Otherwise reversing the DDS I/Q makes U…
-
Yes. The ADC XO (separate part from ADC itself) has to be working. But otherwise bad outputs from the ADC itself shouldn't affect things when in sig gen mode.
-
It's all digital inside the FPGA. It's just a DDS that gets switched in place of the ADC input.
-
I'm done trying to explain this. It's so simple. Maybe someone can try. I'm extremely busy working on useful stuff..
-
If anyone buys one and tries it please let me know if this procedure works for you or not. Interestingly, BeagleBoard.org considers the BBAI-64 to be the "Rev B" of the BBAI, despite the fact that it turned out so different from the BBAI. …
