I've posted about my hurricane issues last year but never really asked if anyone else uses one for emergency power. I have several EcoFlow units as my second line of defense for power fails (a UPS is the first line since most of my EcoFlows don't switch fast enough). I've got one for my wife's medical gear which will last about 17 hours, one for the fridge that will last about 7-8 hours and one for the entertainment/modem/router that... Read more View article »

04-04-26 New TwoToneDetect in the works - Python based Hi all, I've started work on a ground-up rewrite of my TwoToneDetect software (website of existing program and forum thread) using the Python language instead of the... 04-04-26, 15:35 pm Hi all, I've started work on a ground-up rewrite of my TwoToneDetect software (website of existing program and forum thread) using the Python language instead of the LabView language that it was originally written in. I'm doing this to make the code more accessible to other developers out there, as Python development doesn't require any expensive tools or programs. I'm also hoping this new version will be more stable (not crash every few days), although that remains to be... Read more View article »
04-04-26 CB is getting more popular But not for the better. I checked into 32 LSB last night and was told to get off my channel, followed by 10 minutes of F U and threatening me.

I have good groups around here, but no call for that, just said Hello comptech waving at ya'll. I do believe all these welfare recipients on the radio all day screaming and cussing should go get a job. And yes most of them brag about it with their high powered radios. View article »

I've been going through a bunch of recordings and trying to identify talkgroups on a rather large (20+ site) NexEdge system, and I see a lot of RadioID's that the OTA alias is being received, but it's not saving the updated alias to the DSDPlus.radios file. From my evaluation, it looks like the NexEdge... Read more View article »

Manual says to remove the jumper wire between pins 7 and 8 on SW1D on the ALC Board the prevent the 2 capacitors from overheating. There are no jumpers between those 2 switch pins. Now I am at a loss ! Any help, advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time. Johnny View article »
