  • Receive and Decode DGPS on 306 KHz

    The KG software is working under wine on linux. I'm having trouble figuring out the buttons on KGFAX, but have it decoding the image. The buttons are ??? instead of text. Probably don't have a Japanese font in the WINE Font library. The KGdgps software is excellent and easy to use. Thanks for posting the links to the software.

  • Running KiwiSDR from a headless browser

    Peter,
    I have been working this out with Firefox in headless mode. The debug control takes developer tools. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools  I have not installed them or tried them yet. The command line syntax is different, but the functions seem to be the same for the most part. Command line options are listed here. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Command_Line_Options

    Currently I'm uploading spots using this command line syntax from Linux on my Chromebook.
    (trusty)ron@localhost:~$ firefox/firefox -headless -new-tab "http://ka7u.no-ip.org:8074/?ext=wspr,mf&mute" -new-tab "http://ka7u.no-ip.org:8074/?ext=wspr,40m&mute"
    *** You are running in headless mode.

    As you can see it takes more command input than the Chrome commands, but it works fine. I checked and the spots are uploading for MF and 40M. It is running in the background and a CTRL-C from the command line kills the process.

    Thanks for showing how to do this.

  • add DTG to Log

    I wanted to spot New Zealand and Japan stations last night and had to resort to using all manual entries in the DX Cluster softwarre (VE7CC). Ten Tec used an ini file to transfer CAT data between softwares for the Ten Tec Pegasus, ORION, and other Ten Tec Radios. MixW, HDSDR, and other software were written to take advantage of this constantly updated ini file, sending and receiving, frequency and mode information.

    Long story short; if the KiwiSDR wrote a file in the same ini format as Ten Tec used, software such as MixW would provide, logging, DX cluster spots and the ability to send spots to the cluster. Such software would automatically change frequency and mode according to how either connecting software was immediately set by the user. Change the KiwiSDR and MixW adjusts, change MixW and the KiwiSDR adjusts.

    I've read that John has future plans for the dx.json format and use. I can imagine that file being redesigned to provide a data interface to other connecting software on the user's KiwiSDR instance.
