Great discussion. I hope this isn't too far off-topic, but I've been trying to find an extremely low-noise 19 VDC PSU (at 5 to 6 A) to power an Intel NUC when used with SDRs at frequencies below 500 kHz. I bought a Super Hiend 19V 5A Linear Power Su…

Thank you! Hopefully it will do the job.

"Just get yourself a large diameter (e.g. 120mm), low RPM fan to cool your AI64. That's what I do and it works great. Very quiet. No need for PWM control." Any suggestions on a specific fan make/model that meets those specs? I have a BBA…

Thanks, sent.
-
Thanks. For the debian account I've been using temppwd. I can't quite read the serial number on the Kiwi, and I'd have to put it back on the BBG to check it online. When I do the 'm slog' command, 29,141 lines including quite a lot of errors are ret…

my.kiwisdr.com returns "No KiwiSDR(s) found for your public IP address." On Firefox, kiwisdr-2.local:8073 returns the same type of error as before, "Unable to connect. Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at kiwisdr-2.lo…

I'm using: 192.168.1.79:8073 This address style worked with the same Kiwi when it was on the BBG, as well as with a second Kiwi that's running on the same network (on a BBAI (not a -64)). The IP address seems to follow each BB, not the Kiwi. As note…
-
Also: The software installs on the BBAI-64 appeared to go normally. I then mounted the KiwiSDR, taking care to align the pins to avoid the first two rows of the P9 connector. After restarting, I can login via ssh on the BBAI-64 as debian, and it sho…

Well, I just tried cloning, but keep getting a "wrong password" error. Both Kiwis are v1.646. I tried the temporary password; then the serial number on the Kiwi being cloned from (which I know is accurate); then I used the console to chang…

Thanks!
-
I'm interested.
-
Thank you! Very simple, and it works great.
-
Yes, that's actually what I had in mind, and maybe it could provide more flexibility such as checking status remotely from a browser on a phone. But for now there's a lot of interesting stuff in kiwiclient to check out.
-
Thanks! I'm completely new to KiwiClient, but obtained it from Github and the samplerate_test indicates it's working. I'll try the S-meter reading with kiwirecorder and check out the rest of the demo programs.
-
Sounds great to me. If that can ever be added as a feature, I'll definitely be up for testing it.
-
Thanks! It does indeed.

Hi Martin, My apologies for not having seen your post until now. Your comments certainly inspire me to improve the shielding of my KiwiSDR. Do you have any photos of your screened metal box? That might give me some ideas. Also, you mentioned using i…
-
@jks Thank you! @studentkra Thanks. In this case I was wanting to make the change temporary in order to shoot screen shots to examine antenna performance across various bands. But good to know.
-
All fixed now.
-
Okay, problem (mostly) solved. Checking my.kiwisdr.com showed that the network router had decided to give the BBAI a new IP address. Connecting to that shows the KiwiSDR operating normally. However, none of the wsprdaemon rx instances are connecting…
-
Try power cycling the Kiwi. If after a power failure the Kiwi comes up before a slow router that serves ip addresses via DHCP there can be synchronization problems. Thanks, that makes sense, and that fixed it.
-
Wow, the narrowest CW bandwidth is 6Hz if I drag in both sides of the CW filter passband, and I don't think you would resolve any CW through an even narrower filter. That's interesting. When I tried dragging in the sides the other night (a little on…

A small test: I'd been running the BBAI + Kiwi with a 92mm 5v fan a couple of inches away pointed at an angle toward the BBAI cpu. With the room's ambient temperature around 73 F, BBAI cpu freq set to 1.0 GHz, and 12 of the Kiwi's 14 receivers in us…
-
Now that you mention it, I haven't seen much about the benefit of boosting cpu speed. In theory would it enable more or better decodes?
-
Thanks. Actually I'd seen this discussion: "https://forum.kiwisdr.com/index.php?p=/discussion/comment/10329#Comment_10329" Is the cape adequate? Or can mods make it so?
-
Haven't seen anything about that yet. Is there a link?
-
Thanks! That worked. Now on to working out a more permanent cooling approach.
-
Thanks for the suggestions. The "route add default gw ..." command let me get to github. However, a bunch of errors occurred during the Kiwi install, and it didn't complete. So I re-flashed the BBAI with the Debian 9 factory image, redid …
-
One other note. I did the Debian 9 update on the BBAI with the KiwiSDR installed, in case this makes any difference.
-
Thanks for the suggestions. On the BBAI, pinging github.com or any other external server produces "Destination Host Unreachable" errors: debian@beaglebone:~$ ping github.com PING github.com (192.30.255.113) 56(84) bytes of data. From 192.1…
