even so, more Kiwi's clustered together locally help provide more connections to the masses in the event one or more Kiwi's in the cluster are full.
-
that looks like an two page interlaced fax. similar to how CRT television operates.
-
i agree with "loststation". please add a button within the Admin settings to prevent the Kiwi user from disabling audio compression from the Kiwi "Audio" button on their browser. this will significantly achieve bandwidth savings …

im assuming the preamp for the loop is located at the loop and that its powered by DC/AC injection into the coax. if the coax connection between the Kiwi and the Loop antenna was 100% secure and isolated, turning off the preamp to the Loop would pro…

assuming the wellbrook loop gets it power from the RF coax cable (injected power for the preamp), turn off the power to your wellbrook loop antenna and then go on your Kiwi, zoom out to max and see if the noise patterns are still there. i had a simi…

FYI, i have traced the exact waveform that you displayed, at near the same frequency, to be the SMPS from my Samsung LCD TV. despite that my TV is located a good distance from the Kiwi and Loop antenna and despite that i have "choked" the …

is that actually capturing the data stream or just from the PC's soundcard ?
-
perhaps something that sets a specific time limit for a frequency range ? maybe JS driven ? there could be say 3 entry fields, each field can input a defined lower frequency, defined upper frequency and a defined time. when a user connects and tunes…
-
not sure if this was mentioned but perhaps take the Kiwi out of the enclosure and then power it up to see if it then works normally before going through the whole procedure of replacing it.
-
John, keep us posted. I was about to purchase a second one until i saw N8UR's comment.
-
the single button toggle between bandwidth modes is a good idea. with each toggle, the button display changes: AM ~ 10Khz BW (default) AMN ~ 5Khz BW AMW ~ 20Khz BW but new users need to know this somehow. the now extra button (AMN) could perhaps be …

i edited my post to simply indicate "north/south" poles for easier comprehension for someone who may not particularly understand the technical details about GPS.
-
to make it simple for new folks, i left it as "magnetic poles", meaning north/south poles but yes, its the null coverage areas on the extreme latitudes that the satellites dont pass over. someone residing close to the equator should not ha…
-
you indicated that upon a simulated power fail and when power was restored, that the Kiwi had network activity indicated on the RJ45 LED's and the blue light was making a "heartbeat". did it do this (heartbeat) immediately following the po…
-
if the kiwi set its IP address to a private non routable IP different than your home network (eg. 169/192), you will need to connect your PC or another PC directly to the Ubiquiti, let the PC set its own non routable IP (it should be on the same sub…

ok, np - thanks - i can see why i missed the search box, its not placed in a good location :D
-
thanks JKS. i did not see a method to search the discussion forums (unless im just not seeing it), or i would have searched the forums. also, i found a few bugs with posting/deleting attachments during editing of the post. ill post/msg you later abo…

KA7U, i get the same thing after observing your video (the video is certainly helpful as i did not know where the spurs where located) but only half as strong as seen in your video.
-
WA2ZKD - i use your Kiwi's often, the increased BW will prove useful when the HF pirates with HQ AM/SSB audio come on - its finally nice to hear them with good audio through my sound system when i cant receive them locally.
-
could this have been the result of a very low noise level because of the broken coupler ?
-
ive taken the step to identify my receiver on sdr.hu as one with 20Khz BW since there is not yet a method to filter for 20Khz BW receivers versus 12Khz BW receivers on sdr.hu. (Image)
-
thank you JKS for creating this as an option B)
-
I'm able to use an smps on my kiwi with no significant difference in noise level between that and a linear DC supply. this mainly has to do with the build quality of the smps being used. the smps I'm using is charger/DC supply for a 90's Sony camcor…
-
has anyone attempted to use their PC soundcard microphone input connected to their antenna with the sampling changed from the default 44.1Khz to 192Khz ? this works good as a baseband I/Q for VLF down to audible frequencies. (if your software can su…
-
the middle appears to have the least noise. is this linear or switched ?
-
still, even with 22 secured and open to the internet, why would one do this considering the low profile of the beagle green hardware and it's potential to become saturated from multiple connections from a botnet with brute force activity ? even if a…
-
im simply suggesting, since the beagle green is low profile hardware, its hardware could easily become over saturated with multiple incoming SSH TCP packets, considering how bot-nets operate with multiple connections to brute force the password, ess…
-
aside from default access, changing the port to something less common on the Kiwi is a much better practice and mitigation method against bots. even with proper ssh configuration using port 22 on Kiwi, a bot will find the port and brute force it unt…
-
just a thought. it's possible that a "bot" could be "brute forcing" port 22 if it's open to the public (not sure based on your comment). this could cause the issue you describe. I don't leave port 22 on the kiwi open to the publi…
-
i think some Kiwi owners who desire to have 20Khz BW available for their listeners, would appreciate having this as an "advanced option" within the admin menu even if the trade off would be to release certain heavy-use routines on the FPGA…
