Please protect your KiwiSDR 2 from the high-level RF fields of nearby transmitters
Please make sure your Kiwi is adequately grounded. So the antenna input protection circuitry has a path to drain any charge it is intercepting. Ideally this would be on the antenna coax near the
RF inSMA connector. Or from the Kiwi metal case.The ground connection from a switch mode power supply is likely not earth grounded and the Ethernet cable is transformer coupled with capacitive bypass.

Suddenly my WSJT-X decode counts are much lower
For future reference. The conversation continued here: https://groups.io/g/wsprdaemon/topic/my_wsprddaemon_decode_counts/105934346?dir=asc

Sounds like more of a question for https://groups.io/g/wsprdaemon/topics

Network setup advice needed
Sorry, I got called away by a conference call.
If your Kiwi hasn't updated to v1.677 before 3:00 UTC then when it does it will get the change. If it updated prior to 3:00UTC then go to the admin update tab and do a manual build via the "build now" button.
After rebuilding, on the admin network tab you will find a new menu item "power on restart delay (secs)". With values "no delay, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180". The default is/was 30 secs. So try 45 or 60 and see if that fixes your problem.
Remember that this delay is only applied after a Beagle/Debian restart, as would occur after a power fail recovery.
Thank you! I'm sure others will have this same issue.

Who you are, where you are and what are your KiWi's ?
Okay, I added a plugin that allows some content to be added to profiles. For now just Location, Callsign and "Additional information". Let me know if you think we should have others. Look at my profile as an example (click "jks" at the top of this post).
The content isn't presented very optimally. It just appears at the top of the user's profile page.
I also re-enabled the "reactions" feature (i.e. adding "helpful", "awesome" to posts like we used to have).
