  • IQ Display of VLF stations no longer stable? [fixed in v1.344]

    Yeah, something is broken. I tried building older releases and discovered v1.296 (July 5) works. So now I'm going to have to painfully bisect all the versions in-between and figure out what's happened.

    Pretty much all those mil VLF stations use cesium (or better) frequency standards.

  • Reading signal strength from shell [option added to kiwirecorder]

    Okay, if you update to the latest kiwiclient / kiwirecorder then when in S-meter mode:

    "--dt-sec=sec" will average (as fast as possible) for that many seconds and then print a measurement result. This is different from "--s-meter=value_greater_than_zero" which averages for a specific number of averages. Naturally it is a conflict to use both --dt-sec > 0 and --s-meter > 0. If you are using --dt_sec you want --s-meter=0.

    "--ts", "--tstamp" or "--timestamp" will prefix the output with a timestamp. "--stats" works as before showing you the actual number of averages/sec obtained.

    Sample output. See the Makefile for command line examples.
    python kiwirecorder.py -s kiwi -p 8074 --s-meter=0 --ts --dt-sec=2 --tlimit=10 --stats

    Reception looks good. Very happy to have another KiwiSDR located in the Middle East.
