Six is looking good. 15mins activity right there...
PiAware 10 now running on a Pi 3B - did not use the 32bit image, installed the bare bones 64bit OS and pulled from the repository. For some reason my RTL-SDR V4 is not liked so I am using the older V3. I'll dig around tomorrow in the logs to find out why. Probably some driver quirk that's documented and I missed it. Antenna on my desk too, I need to connect it to the one on the roof tomorrow. I'm in the flight path of RDU which is why I'm getting *something*.
Old news to most I am sure... but this is cool.
@M0PWX Oooh. You just reminded me. I found a NIB Pi 3B in a box last week and I thought about setting up my ADSB RX again. I've set a reminder for tomorrow to do that. Thx!
@IU1KGS 80/40 are dead at the moment, I probably need to wait for the sun to go down. 160m is not tunable on my antenna that I have left.
17m is good into EU right now, first station worked...Italy.
@IU1KGS Oooh, I do. I need to give it a go!
@th I literally 20 mins ago just found a couple of KB's in the loft that I totally forgot I had. 39 year old Model M was one of them. The other is a Digital LK201.
@ON4VT Nice! In the log and will be uploaded soon.
Cleaning out the loft and the garage of items that need to be sold or disposed of. Found a couple of Keyboards. Are these worth eBay'ing? They both need a clean and the IBM is lacking the cable. 39 year old!
Time for some 17m FT8.
@M0KHR I've just extended my reach to over 700 miles on the last TX, seems like it may be changing. I might try some more 10m and then jump on 17m or 20m later. I did rather well over the past couple of days post aurora activity.
6m ain't making across the pond today.
@croyle impressive. I can't even paint a wall.
17m is one of my favorite bands. #FT8
And away they go.... Heading into the woods.
