You could mask that frequency for awhile to deter those repeat offenders. It's possible some of these people are re-streaming the SDR on YouTube like people do with the Russian buzzer.

As an AM DXer, I'd suggest just applying just enough attenuation or building/buying a notch filter for 580 kHz. 5dB attenuation isn't bad. Many great KiwiSDRs have been fitted with AM BCB filters that wipe out the AM band entirely. Great if you're o…

I assume you've already done this, but I'll post it just in case. Double check that you don't have the GPS antenna and receive antennas swapped. A guy in town here who also has a Kiwi accidentally swapped those antennas and his Kiwi was acting in a …

I've noticed it will change on its own within a day or two. I have my Kiwi set to restart it's server once every 24 hours though, so maybe that does it.

Is this a KiwiSDR 1 or a KiwiSDR 2 with the built in attenuator? Does this 50kW signal appear the same or stronger compared to what other local AM signals typically were at?
-
I have nothing in the log for SSTV failure. I just noticed that when in 3 channel config, there is no "waiting for signal" indicator, and the test button is shaded out. Where in 4 and 8 channel configs, it shows "waiting for signal&qu…

Is the DRM extension supposed to work in 3 channel mode now? I recall it wasn't originally available to be opened when set to 3 channel mode config but some time back it became available. I have never been able to get it to decode when in 3 channel …

I updated to v1.820. That appears to have fixed it. Thanks for all the hard work you do!

https://forum.kiwisdr.com/index.php?p=/discussion/comment/21012#Comment_21012 In addition to check boxes, how about a field to measure SNR across a custom range? Such as having the option to measure the SNR across 500 - 1800 to compare AM band perfo…

It's like those Kiwi owners who block out the entire AM/MW band. They decided they want their Kiwi to be used for amateur radio purposes only. You can probably thank users who repeatedly park on a frequency or set of frequencies for long periods of …

Looks like FSK. You could try playing around with the decoder in the Kiwi to see if you can get a decode.

This was in a Radiogram on WINB 9265 moments ago, relating to WWV/WWVH: This is Shortwave Radiogram in MFSK64 Please send your reception report to radiogram@verizon.net From Phys.org: New atomic fountain clock joins elite group that keeps the worl…

You could have a list of fields on the Admin interface where the owner could input the frequencies of the signals they wish to use for reference. Could also have an option to auto-populate the fields with WWV/WWVH, CHU, BPM, etc. They could then omi…
-
Could a utility be implemented in the Kiwi that would allow one or more reference signals (such time signals WWV/WWVH) to be used to automatically calibrate the frequency? Once every few hours or once a day, the utility could check for an offset on …

Somewhere it was mentioned you want a MicroSDHC card of 8-32GB. John or someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but from my understanding, MicroSDXC cards are not supported on the Beagle. I know some MicroSDXC cards do have backwards compatibility with…

Just noticed this with a couple of public Kiwis that have updated to v1.807. The waterfall smears when zoomed all the way into WF14 (which I use often to watch and track down offsets). It's fine from WF13 and out. These Kiwis are running 4 channel m…

I'm running v1.806. http://kiwisdr.local:8073/?no_wf as well as /?mute, and /?wfts=5 (5 sec waterfall timestamps) are all working fine here using Firefox. Try clearing the site data and cookies on your browser for the Kiwi(s) affected.

I know the majority of Kiwi owners are only interested in HF, but there are many of us who do a lot of MW DX. The network of public Kiwis are highly useful for trying to track down a weak MW station, especially one that doesn't have an online stream…

I've had a KiwiSDR running 24/7 since 2020, installed in a non-climate controlled shed in my backyard. Seeing temperatures well below 0°F (-20°C) in the winter to as high as 110°F (45°C) in the summer. It's been trouble free ever since. I use it alm…

I was about a day away from ordering an MS-S5 from LZ2RR on eBay when the listing was abruptly pulled (with units still showing in stock). I've been watching eBay for about a month since, I have email notifications set. So I'm back to the drawing ta…
-
If you zoom all the way in on the waterfall, you can see that signal on 198.
-
Would it be beneficial to encourage owners to get their Kiwis configured on their own network to reduce the load on the proxy server? I'm sure there's many Kiwis on networks that could be easily configured for port-forwarding that really don't need …
-
I assume you're running an antenna that uses a powered amplifier, given you say "Indoor Active Loops" for the antenna. Check the power supply for that antenna. Unplug the power supply for your antenna replace it with a simple wire antenna …
-
Did you use a new SD card, or the one that came with the Kiwi? If you used the card that came with the Kiwi, it sounds like you reflashed the Kiwi with the original backup image. To back it up, you wanted to insert the SD card while the Kiwi was sti…

I have the US AM station sunrise/sunset map for the month in my iframe, useful when AM/MW DXing. Shows when stations are supposed to sign-off or drop to night power/pattern at night and sign-on or go to day power/pattern in the morning, as dictated …

Thanks HB9TMC, I'll have to add that url parameter to my bookmarked Kiwi link and a few others I have bookmarked. This post was a suggestion that perhaps the feature of remembering the WF timestamp setting could be added sometime in the future. Like…
-
I know a lot of Kiwi owners are most interested in HF and SWLing, but the public Kiwis are also very useful to AM/MW DXers for targeting or identifying signals that may be local or within range to those Kiwis. Unfortunately, there's many Kiwis in de…

Your recordings will have a sample rate of 20250 Hz if your Kiwi is configured for 3 channel 20kHz bandwidth mode. 12000 Hz if the Kiwi is set to 4 or 8 channel mode. Downloaded recordings are in WAV format and you can resample to 22050 in audio edi…

Could a physical jumper be implemented in future models to allow for the user to open the case and bypass the attenuator in the event it's unneeded or gets damaged? Assuming a small jumper(s) could be had that won't act like an antenna for internal …

Everything updated just fine here without problems. I'll have to remind myself to write a new backup SD card with one of these v1.8xx versions so we don't have any potential problems updating in the event I need to restore the Kiwi.
