Well, for some reason, the TPS65217 on the Beaglebone board doesn't want to pass the 5-volt power on. I don't know why this might be happening. Try checking the other GPIO pins on the KiwiSDR for short circuits.
-
Sorry for the stupid question, but are you sure you connected the KiwiSDR and Beaglebone board correctly? The main Beaglebone power controller must supply 5V_INT power to the KiwiSDR board and to the Beaglebone 5V_SYS board if the supply voltage is …
-
Yes. That's how it should be. Current consumption and voltage are normal. I didn't quite understand, do you supply power to the Beaglebone board via the USB connector or via the barrel connector?
-
Hi! The fact that the Beagle board does not start with the KiwiSDR board connected indicates that there may be a short circuit on the KiwiSDR board via the 5V_INT circuit. Also check the 3.3V circuit for a short circuit. The resistance of the 5V_INT…

Since the main interference comes from the electrical wiring, you can try installing such a filter. As far as possible from the entrance of the electrical wiring in a private house. https://forum.kiwisdr.com/uploads/114/6VUVL7TG5E9G.jpg

@F5AFY , Yes. It seems that these plastic welding machines have a lot of power. I've also studied their specifications. The frequency range is 27-28 MHz. I'm even receiving a fifth-harmonic signal at 137-138 MHz, which interferes with the reception …

https://forum.kiwisdr.com/uploads/058/QCYVXKU68R3A.jpg Hi! If you are referring to these "scratches" or "worms" on the waterfall, then most likely it is the work of an industrial installation for high-frequency plastic welding. T…

I've been using SNR level logging, adc_ov, and the number of users for a long time. The charts are available as a web page, and it is located on the Kiwi server in the config folder as simple html file. The code was written a long time ago without u…

Never trust VM! The best way is to buy another KiwiSDR (or better two, just in case). This is the only way you can safely check bash: echo -n "A1" > /dev/ttyUSB0 ;)
-
You just need to send two bytes in ttyUSB. Its very easy. In our country, they usually say "Как два байта переслать" ))) Use simple command echo -n "A1" > /dev/ttyUSB0
-
Most likely, the CP2102 driver is already installed in Debian. For example of a Python script: import serial ser = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyUSB0', 115200) ser.write("A1") #A1 select antenna number 1

Look at this. Page 15. https://forum.kiwisdr.com/uploads/168/Q3Q3GI8H7O9Y.pdf

Clicking on these two links goes through the captcha and produces the desired results.

I understood. Thanks!

Do you mean the DDoS attacks on May 9th, like in the screenshot above?
-
Thanks for the answer! Yes, I understand that the old versions of KiwiSDR software have bugs and are not safe. But I (like many other users) use non-original versions of KiwiSDR. And unfortunately, the release of new software for these clones has be…
-
Hello. I can't find any information, but I remember for sure that KiwiSDRs with older versions of the software are no longer displayed on the public map. @jks , John, is it enough for KiwiSDR to send the "correct" version of the software t…

My project of HMC253 and ESP8266 antenna switch on Github. https://github.com/studentkra/HMC253 Not tested yet ))
-
Wow! Only 249 dollars. Good price!
-
@n8oou Hello, Mike! I have never used the HMC253 before. I have also not studied the documentation for this product in detail. I have a need to switch two antennas to one RSP1A receiver. I used a switch on a relay, but at frequencies above 1500 MHz…

I post firmware to control PE4302 attenuator via ESP8266 on GitHub now. https://github.com/studentkra/PE4302_attenuator
-
I have an ESP running an attenuator right now. I wrote the program for ESP myself. Everything has been working fine for almost a year. It will not be difficult to rewrite the software for managing this switch. And I don't understand why to use a boa…
-
I received an HMC253 (DC-2.5 GHz) board today for $8. I also have an ESP8266 for $2. These are the cheapest materials from which you can assemble an antenna switch controlled via USB. https://forum.kiwisdr.com/uploads/982/VRVE2OZL4W11.jpg
-
Thank you, John! I was very very interested in investigating this. By the way, while the Kiwi server is not launched, the FPGA consumes about 60 mA. And by the way again ... I was offered to leave this Kiwisdr for myself. And I made a case for two r…

Today I installed the TLV62569DBVR pulse stabilizer instead of the failed LMR10530Y. Their reference voltage is the same, so there is no need to change the voltage resistive divider. https://forum.kiwisdr.com/uploads/736/Z6RCNTUZ4S17.jpg I used an…
-
John, thank you so much for your suggestion! But I want to try to repair the KiwiSRR on my own, using cheap and affordable components. As you can see, I have installed a linear stabilizer to power the FPGA 1.0V. It has been working fine for several …
-
If you keep in mind which country I'm in, then I don't have any available options for buying these chips )) Or price is so high, so i can not let myself to by it. Alsow, look at min quanity of order ))
-
The LMR10530 pulse stabilizer cannot be purchased. I've also been looking for analogues for a very long time, at least a little similar in pinout. It ended in failure. ChatGPT and DeepSeec couldn't help me either. I ordered several pieces of TLV6256…

I also saw something similar on my KiwiSDR. This was due to the charger for a 12 volt car battery. I do not know what kind of charger it was, but I found out that the neighbor was charging the battery next to me. The KiwiSDR spectrum looked exactly …

Please check the GPS fix. Instead of the set coordinates, my KiwiSDR is displayed in a real location on the map.
