It's all about the Software

Update: Located the offending pole and reported it to local power company. Drove around with AirspyHF+ and a massive 17M hamstick and observed the sharp increase, and then decrease in signal in the area. Walking over with an FT-817 and a 1.5 foot whip, it's S-7 at the pole. Noise goes nuts when I sh...

Any users of my system notice when this QRM started? VERY broad banded, and effects all HF bands. Noticeable on ALL SDR's here at the QTH! :x I have a hunch it may be a powerline insulator arcing due to the sound and width of QRM. See the examples attached: Note the spacing between gaps appears to b...

We are under the gun again this PM, so Servers #2 and #4 are offline yet again. Sorry for the inconvenience, but I'd rather keep all my gear functioning vs blown up by lightning. #1 and #3 are still available, unless it gets REALLY bad outside. Short video of the backside of my patch panel in barn a...

It may have been this user. Will have to reboot the server app once everyone clears... but heading up to PCARC site to drop off test equipment:

All back online for now as of 0630EDT (1030z). Few < 1 mile hits, then once it was all done, a hit came out of nowhere, possibly hitting the two way commercial tower just south of me on the neighboring hill top.

Forgive me if I sound harsh, but if you say SDR Console stopped working with no other hints of what is really happening… Would be same as telling us your car stopped working, with no mention of whether it's out of gas, dead battery, tires flat, transmission is seized, or the engine grenaded. Having ...

OK... all is back online.
Another user of the router changed a setting and lost all contact with SDR's and Icom radios.

For some reason my Free Dynamic DNS still has not updated. IP changed at about 1700z, but ISP's still haven't gotten the update.
I forced an update few hours ago.
KA1GJU@W1WQM is currently working due to being on a different IP and physical location 12 miles away.
