Recent Notes
Added this #BitAxe to the #Hamshack today. It's solo-mining (also known as the "Bitcoin Lottery"). It's a lot quieter than I anticipated. Now it just needs to hit the lottery to help pay for some new #hamradio projects! π
I've looked online and I can't find the answer. Seeing as how many #radio #tech #hams there are here. . .Why would you get a 4g walkie talkie? why is that better than a cell phone?
Useful in scenarios where you need instantaneous one-to-many comms in an area where radio doesn't have the coverage.
Just getting started with "block 44" in the #hamshack. Are there any other #nostr #hams using a #block44 address?
My #hamradio/#technology web site is still hosted on my VPS with an ordinary IP address, but is now also reachable at www.n7ekb.ampr.org .

Wenn ich mit #Meshtastic rumexperimentieren mΓΆchte, dann brauche ich "nur" so ein Board, richtig?

Genau richtig. Wird auch gut mit #reticulum funktionieren... π

I honestly don't know what the rules are for this ham in the Netherlands, but if I was to implement his design here in the US, I'd put the nodes on a commercial band frequency to avoid the encryption mess under Part 97 rules. For #EMCOMM I've been toying with the idea of using one of our town's dedicated public safety frequencies for a UHF band LoRA #reticulum #RNode network. #hamradio is too restrictive with the required individual licensing and rules regarding encryption, etc. For example, in a #disaster we can hand out radios from our town's radio cache to non-technical volunteers who otherwise meet volunteer requirements (background check, etc.), and not worry about a ham license.

Looking at the below abstract from the #Reticulum manual brings the following ideas/questions to mind: How hard would it be to modify a #nostr relay to allow connections to/from a #Reticulum network? Along the same lines, how hard would it be to modify a #nostr client to utilize a #Reticulum network as a transport?

Pipe Interface
Using this interface, Reticulum can use any program as an interface via stdin and stdout. This can be used to easily create virtual interfaces, or to interface with custom hardware or other systems.
``````
`[[Pipe Interface]]
type = PipeInterface
enabled = yes
# External command to execute
command = netcat -l 5757
# Optional respawn delay, in seconds
respawn_delay = 5

I don't quite understand this article. I just finished setting up my own #XMPP / #Jabber messaging server on https://xmpp.n7ekb.net. I don't get the connection between a phone plan and XMPP. Especially the comment "privacy-enhancing phone service using XMPP".

Pff!
#ARRL mailed me a "your membership has expired" bundle today. Their big selling point: re-join and we'll send you a mousepad or license plate surround. Woop-de-doo. Β―\_(γ)_/Β― Not enough, fol...
I payed for the life membership when I first got my #amateur #radio license. I had too much money burning a hole in my pocket, and frankly didn't know any better. I'm still waiting on #ARRL to issue my #DXCC which was electronically confirmed within seconds after my 100th validated QSO in #LoTW. For an organization supposedly representing amateurs who 'contribute to the advancement of the radio art' they're woefully behind in technology. It's sad... π’
The installation of my self-hosted Jabber/XMPP modern messaging server on #Debian is done. For the second time. That's right. I had it all up and running on a shiny new VPS a few weeks ago. I had the new installation passing with 100% compliance on https://compliance.conversations.im/server/n7ekb.net/. Then I *deleted* it instead of the old #Rocky #Linux VPS I had on the same hosting service...
Of course I made this swift rookie mistake *before* I'd setup my offsite backup!
Soooo. Guess what? The new re-installation is now backed up three ways to Sunday. My old friends git and rsync are happily guarding the server from this incompetent server admins!
Setup for family and friends and #hamradio, https://xmpp.n7ekb.net is ready for action.
