[skywavelinux]

Here it is, friendly radio and Linux enthusiasts: Skywave Linux v5.6 is up and available. Turns your internet=connected PC into the coolest shortwave (and medium / longwave) radio you will find anywhere.

[neverburnbooks]

Skywave Linux v5.3 is available for download! It is a self-contained live Linux iso for shortwave listening on internet based SDR sites. The picture is from a nice night enjoying CBC Radio 1, picked up on a receiver in Newfoundland, Canada

Get the iso image, burn it to a USB stick, boot the system and have fun. Shut down and unplug the USB, your PC never knew it was running a live Linux system...

Diversify Your Information Gathering

With Donald Trump’s direct attacks on US media sources like CNN or MSNBC, we should anticipate that we won’t necessarily be able to rely on them all the time. Consider that we may be cut off from them entirely, or that they will self-censor themselves for preservation purposes. Potentially they will be turned into right-wing propaganda outlets for the regime. This might not be immediately evident if it occurs, so I’m not sure it’s wise to trust any US-based mainstream corporate-owned news outlets at this stage. I’m currently maintaining deep skepticism of everything I see right now.

We should also disabuse ourselves of the notion that we can trust algorithmically sorted news gathering via social media networks like Facebook, Bluesky, and Threads. Of these, I tend to trust Mastodon the most since it’s a decentralized open source federated network, which makes it resistant to manipulation. Sites like Reddit can be good as a means of gathering information, but due to their centralized nature are potentially easy to be compromise by bad actors.

I’ve made a list of news outlets I think are reasonably reputable and have gotten myself a nice RSS reader in order to obtain direct feeds of their content on an ongoing basis. You should consider getting one as well if you don’t already have one. You can subscribe to lots of feeds on there and export an OPML list of your subscriptions to clients on other platforms. I’ve included a download link below.

On Mac and iOS, I use an app called Reeder Classic.

On Windows, I use RSS Radar. It’s also available for Mac.

And on Linux I use Newsflash.

Here are some of the news sources I’m choosing to prioritize: Al Jazeera English, BBC News, CBC News, Democracy Now, DW News English, Jacobin, Le Monde English, NPR, ProPublica, RFI, The Globe and Mail, The Guardian, The Stranger (it’s a Seattle institution), WBUR, WGBH.

I’ve also got a VPN provider called Nord VPN, so I can use the British version of the BBC News website, which is somewhat different than the US version.

Consider getting your a shortwave radio. While I don’t use these as news sources, with a simple handheld unit (I have a Tecsun R9700DX), I’ve been able to pick up Radio Nikkei based in Japan, Radio New Zealand, Radio Havana Cuba, and various other broadcasters as far as the Philippines, China, Russia, Central America, and even Canada. There’s a long history of using shortwave radio to send information across borders to suppressed populations. That’s what we were doing with Voice of America and others until Trump shut them down this past day. It is possible this form of information dissemination will become necessary again in our time for our own use to gather news from abroad.

With regard to long distance radio, by the way, here’s a fun fact: You can also pick AM radio stations located across the country over long distances at night. From Seattle, when I’m DXing, I can often pick up AM broadcasters located in San Francisco, Reno, and Colorado.

Get yourself a ham radio. I have a handheld Baofeng UV-5R. You’ll find that there regular local repeater groups you can tune into and hear from people all over your region and indeed the world. It’s fun to listen to them, and hear people talk about things happening on the ground in your locality. Get a ham radio operator license. I haven’t yet done this, but I would like to eventually. Even if you don’t have a license, you can still listen, and in a life and death emergency situation, it is also permissible to use them unlicensed under specific conditions (see exceptions 97.403 and 97.405).

Above all else. Keep an open mind. Be skeptical of what you see and hear. Think before you share. Consider the source and keep in mind any biases the sharer might have had.

Good night, and good luck.

My OPML file: While I tend to follow lots of tech news sites and bloggers as well, I’ve extracted just the information sources I’ve put together that are relevant to me for the purposes of this post. Maybe you can use it as a starting point for yourself: Download

The Long Dark update 2.17 is available on PS4, PC, and Xbox One. According to the Long Dark version 2.17 patch notes, the latest update adds Expansion Pass update TALES FROM THE FAR TERRITORY and Part Three: FRONTIER COMFORTS. Apart from this, The Long Dark patch 2.17 also includes various bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements. Previously, a big Long Dark update 1.99 added addresses a potential blocker in Episode Four. Unfortunately, some players are facing bugs and errors since the last patch. Today's The Long Dark patch 2.17 will fix a few of these issues. Check out more details below. The Long Dark Patch 2.17 Notes - June 22, 2023 GENERAL & CRASHES: Fixed an issue where players received errors reading "failed to load HinterlandOptionalContent.Steam" on Windows, Mac, and Linux. Fixed an issue where sleeping in a Helicopter without a Bedroll would result in a crash. Fixed an issue where audio would not play the first time Harvesting something (Rosehips, etc) after entering a scene. Fixed an issue that would cause the game to crash for some players when applying a bandage. Fixed an issue that would cause the Mountain Town Transmitter to report the incorrect GUID information, which could result in a crash. Fixed a potential crash in the Main Menu if a player entered into gameplay while the News menu was still waiting for a response from the server. Fixed an erroneous error message that could appear in the player’s log file, eventually leading to performance issues. Fixed a very rare crash that could occur if the player invoked a menu, such as the Inventory or death screen, while also pressing a button for another input, such as walking or interacting with something. GAMEPLAY: Fixed an issue where a Carcass could become non-interactable if left in the world for an extended period of time. The Bow will now switch to Fire-Hardened Arrows automatically if they are the only arrows left in the player's Inventory. Fixed an issue that caused the Energy Drink to give the incorrect duration for the associated Headache affliction. Fixed an issue where Bedrolls slept or rested in could be destroyed in a struggle, even when not in a player's inventory. Fixed an issue that prevented Bedrolls from showing their damage state when placed on the ground. Fixed an issue where renewable items (Sticks, Stones, Coal, etc.) were sometimes more plentiful than intended. Fixed an issue that could cause corrupted save data if the player quickly equipped the Shortwave Radio, put it away, then quickly exited the game. Fixed an issue that would cause fully cooked or partially cooked food items to revert to a raw state if dragged off the cooking surface and dropped onto a new one. Interloper - Spelunker's Lantern variant is now available in Interloper. USER INTERFACE: Map - Fixed an issue that caused Rock Cache Map markers to appear in the wrong location or not on the Map at all. Fixed an issue that caused the Headache Affliction meter to show a maximum of 1 hour, regardless of the actual Affliction length. Campcraft Radial Menu - Added the Fishing Hole to the Camp Radial Menu slot and temporarily removed the Bearskin Bedroll. Journal - Added the Challenge Objective tab that was missing from the Journal while playing a Challenge. ENVIRONMENT ART: Fixed various issues with specific locations and objects in the game world. AUDIO: Adjusted audio for the Lit Flare and Marine Flare so it emits properly from the Flare's location. PLATFORM-SPECIFIC ISSUES: Xbox/PS4 - Fixed an issue that would cause the game to crash on Xbox One and PlayStation, when performing an action. PS4 - Fixed a potential crash that could occur if the player was sleeping during an active Aurora. PS4 - Fixed a crash that could occur while exiting back to the Main Menu. PS4 - Fixed a crash that could occur while scrolling through the Inventory. PS4 - Fixed an issue with the timing of the subtitles, if played on a PS5 or a framerate other than 30 FPS.

This video explains how the RTL-SDR dongle works. I will show you how to open the RTL-SDR dongle and show you (very detailed) what it inside this particular. Download rtltcp SDR for macOS 10.15 or later and enjoy it on your Mac. ‎This is a macOS version of the iOS rtltcp SDR app. Connect, via the rtltcp network protocol, to a remote or directly connected RTL-SDR USB peripheral - Listen to AM, FM, SSB and CW radio signals - View an RF spectrum and waterfall This app requires either a local. Mac OSX users can have a hard time with the RTL-SDR as there are not many software packages available for it. One software package that is known to work well on OSX is GQRX, which is a general multi mode receiver GUI that is similar to the Windows software SDR#.

Macintosh Links Shortwave Radio Pirate Radio Spy Numbers Stations Science and Electronics Ham Radio Software

I’ve been working on developing OSX/Mac and Windows versions of SdrDx. At this time, SdrDx for OS X and Windows supports Ethernet-connected version of AFEDRI SDRs, the USB-connected Airspy (AirSpy HF+ under OS X only, via this OS X server), Ethernet-based Andrus MK1.5, USB FunCube Pro, USB FunCube Pro Plus, Peaberry, Ethernet based RFSPACE SDrs, USB RTL sticks (RTL supported under OS X only, via this OS X server) and Softrock SDR receivers. Both the Peaberry and Softrock SDRs require a lot of expertise to get working. The others are pretty much plug-and-play.

For this to work just install Tongbu Assistant, connect your device and look for the info. And email icloud id, doest work in all idevices it seems need not be restored, can be in lost mode not erased. Find email icloud apple idalso many people use this software because helps you download paid apps for free.In this app the good thing is have many options you can check about your idevice, and one of them is serial number, Imei, USUS, Phone number, etc. Tongbu assistant for mac download.

In addition, SdrDx can be made to support any SDR with a sound card interface, including I/Q input via your native or auxiliary sound card, with a little scripting work; the Peaberry and Softrock support use this mechanism via Python.

SdrDx (running on the Mac) is shown to the right. SdrDx is a closed-source, free application.

SdrDx, in combination with your SDR, is an extremely powerful receiver. Reception, recording, playback, analysis, processing — it’s all there, and it’s all been made as easy to use as possible. Extensive documentation covers every aspect of operating the software, as well as providing numerous examples and images to help you along. If you’re an expert radio user, you’re sure to settle right in. If you’re still learning, you can look forward to software that lets your capabilities grow with your knowledge.

Youtube converter to mp4 mac. While many want to download YouTube videos, the only way to do so responsibly is on iOS and Android, by paying the $11.99 for YouTube Premium. Otherwise, you're violating YouTube's terms of.

You can have real knobs and buttons

AirSpy HF+, RTL, SDR-IQ and SDR-14 users: You can download the executable application(s) appropriate to your OS (OS X or Windows) and the networking server for your OS (if you have an AirSpy HF+, SDR-IQ or SDR-14 and don’t already have a server) below. Remember, you must have a network server application installed to support these USB-based SDRs. Server applications for both OS X and Windows platforms for the SDR-IQ and SDR-14 are available in the list of downloads below; so far, the only available servers for the AirSpy HF+ and RTL sticks run under OS X. Other supported SDR types do not require a server application.

Buying an SDR?

Please consider the following makers of SDRs ahead of any others. These manufacturers have gone the extra mile to see that SDR software developers such as myself are provided with working SDR samples, technical support and interfacing data:

• AFEDRI (822, 822x) • AirSpy (HF+) • Andrus (MK 1.5) • Funcube (pro, pro plus)

The main application zip file will un-compress to a folder, inside which you will find the SdrDx application, and some other files. Please read

the documentation carefully. Take advantage of the extensive index. If you can’t find something in the index, please let me know. I try to keep the documentation up to date. It’s no trouble at all to add index entries, and generally speaking, I’m willing to expand the main manual itself if you find something I have not covered yet. Recent changes to the documentation may only be found in the beta documentation until a version update of the entire package is made; this is where to look if you ask me to add something, it’ll appear there first.

Note to Windows OS users: Only run SdrDx and SwDb out of the folders I supply them in. Don’t stick the executables somewhere else. That way lies madness. MaDnEsS!

For Developers (and those who would encourage developers)

In order that SdrDx is able to support additional USB-based SDRs, a protocol-compatible server must be written by the SDR vendor or a third party. You can use this fully functional RTL USB-to-network server as a starting point — it does everything you need to do to talk to SdrDx. SdrDx will work with any SDR or SDR network server that acts like the sample server software; if you need to extend the network methods, for instance to control features unique to your SDR, let me know and I will do my best to support those extensions. However, note that I require that the actual SDR be provided to me for development and testing of those extensions.

Likewise, if you’re considering a new SDR design where you plan to have an Ethernet connection as one of, or the only, method of communication to the host computer, ideally it will be compliant with those protocols. If it is, it will “just work.” If it isn’t — it won’t, and software support for your design will be considerably more limited. Examples of such well-designed SDRs include the Andrus MK 1.5 and the AFEDRI, as well as the SDR-IQ via its network server applications. And of course all the RFSPACE networked SDRs.

If you’re looking for something to do, many USB-based receivers are desperately in need of precisely such a server. No, I don’t write these servers. I spend what time I have adding radio features to SdrDx. However, here is GPL’d source code for an SdrDx-compatible USB-to-Network server for the RTL 'stick' SDRs that can be refactored to support other USB devices. All you need to do with regard to SdrDx is tell me what device name you will use with the server (it currently reports in as 'RTLSVR', you need to pick a name for the device you’re supporting, and tell me what it is.)

For Everyone:

Is my SDR already supported? The answer is here: Check this list.

Wideband RF Recordings — these are useful if you’d like to try out SdrDx but you don’t have an SDR yet. You can start SdrDx, press '>play (click that link, then look for the green button) and then enjoy receiving the described band, event, etc. You can tune within the bandwidth of the recording. So for instance, if you play the 6100 kHz recording, which is 200 kHz wide, you can tune from 6000 kHz to 6200 kHz — most of the 49 meter band! Just download and install SdrDx, then the file of interest, start SdrDx, press > and select the file (if it’s zipped, you have to unzip it first.)

Help for AFEDRI (preliminary)

People have been having problems getting the AFEDRI to work with SdrDx; I’m not sure why, but here is some information on what I did to get mine going.

Before you start, make sure you’ve set the audio output within SdrDx using to the correct device. If this is not set correctly, SdrDx cannot run.

Now as to the AFEDRI itself: First of all, I could not make the AFEDRI’s DHCP settings work at all. I contacted Alex, the designer, and after quite a few emails back and forth, he suggested a static IP configuration. I set that up, got it working on my normal network, and then connected it to my 2nd ethernet port on the Mac (this is under OS X 10.6.8) under a second network of 192.168.10.1; this involved some fairly annoying screwing around with the OS X configuration files. I never did get the DHCP to work, though some SdrDx users have. So I strongly suggest you set the AFEDRI up using a static IP; I think there may be some fairly severe bugs in the AFEDRI’s DHCP handling, or at least, ways it can be set up that simply don’t work. Other SDRs, such as the Andrus MK 1.5, configure using DHCP no problem, so it’s definitely something unique to the AFEDRI.

Having said that, it could very well be something I did in the configuration utility of the AFEDRI; the version I had only provided a Windows-only program, and I only fired up the laptop to work with it until I got it to work in general, and never looked back. Running windows give me hives. Still, I know for sure you can get the AFEDRI working with OS X — the AFEDRI is the SDR I’ve been using for quite a few months now; it’s a great SDR. I would expect results to be similar for Windows, that is, static IP will definitely work, and DHCP might not.

Support for Andrus MK1.5 SDR

Connect Andrus MK1.5 to your LAN Ethernet

Start SdrDx 2.12p (or later)

Open NET dialog and use auto-find to locate Andrus

Close NET dialog

Open SDR dialog and set bandwidth as desired

Close SDR dialog

Press RUN

Support for Peaberry and (possibly) Softrock

Unzip and copy .py file from within the .zip to your home directory

Download and install PyUSB library

Start SdrDx 2.12p (or later)

Open a shell at your home directory and type ./tcp-to-peaberry.py

In SdrDx, left-click SND button, select “Peaberry Radio” as input sound card, OK

System Requirements

SdrDx and SwDb for the Mac require an Intel CPU, running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or later.

So far, I have numerous third-party reports of SdrDx working under 10.6, 10.7, 10.8, 10.9, 10.10, 10.11 10.12, and 10.13.

Users of 10.11 through 10.13 report mixed results, under these OS X versions, USB server based SDR users are facing driver installation and activation problems, and tooltips and drop-down menus are blank; Apple’s gone and broken perfectly stable APIs again. Steps required to compensate for Apple’s idiot USB shenanigans are in the docs under new installs. No fix in known for the tooltips issue at this time.

There are two tricks required as of 10.9 and later:

First, you need to turn the “App Nap” feature off or when SdrDx is not the front window, OS X will put it to sleep, which will break it. Right click on the SdrDx app icon, select “info”, turn off App Nap, and close the info window. If you’ve got an SDR-IQ where the server runs under 10.9, you’ll need to do the same thing to the server application. Note: I suggest the very first thing you do with any application you install is turn off App Nap — it’s one of Apple’s worst ideas ever. That’s all there is to that.

Second, under 10.9 and later, for users of the SDR-IQ, Apple thoroughly broke the USB driver that is required for the SDR-IQ and SDR-14 (and possibly the CloudIQ — anyone have a CloudIQ running?) So in order to use the USB driver in the SDR-IQ/SDR-14 server application instead (so the USB to Net server will work), you need to enter the following in a shell right after you boot your machine…

sudo kextunload -b com.apple.driver.AppleUSBFTDI

Rtl-sdr For Mac

…it’s not sticky, so you’ll have to do this every time you reboot your Mac.

And of course SdrDx requires an SDR as well if you want to receive live, although it can play back pre-recorded files without an SDR; in the specific cases of the AirSpy HF+, RTL SDR, SDR-IQ and SDR-14, you’ll need to use one of the server applications that puts these SDRs on the network. SdrDx’s support of RFSPACE SDRs and compatibles, and near-compatibles, is only via network connections, SdrDx does not directly interface with the USB connection of the SDR-IQ.

For the Mac, I am presently designing and testing and compiling under an OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) virtual machine (VMWARE) running under OS X / MacOS 10.12.6.

Rtl Sdr For Mac Computers

Rtl-sdr Macports

SdrDx and SwDb for the PC require an Intel CPU, running Windows XP or (possibly) a later version of the OS. SdrDx requires an RFSPACE, AFEDRI, Andrus MK1.5, FUNcube Dongle SDR, or a Soundcard-based SDR, or pre-recorded RF files (see above for some of these) in order to do anything useful; in the specific cases of the SDR-IQ and SDR-14, you’ll also need a server application that puts the SDR-IQ on the network. SdrDx handles the RFSPACE SDRs and compatibles (and near-compatibles) via the network, it does not directly interface with them via USB. You must run these applications out of the folders they are supplied in, as they depend on files in those folders.

Rtl Sdr For Mac Os

For Windows, I am presently cross-compiling under Windows XP (in a VMWARE VM under OS X / MacOS 10.12.6.)

Shortwave Radiogram, 1-4 July 2021: Will eliminating silent gaps eliminate missed image headers?

Shortwave Radiogram listeners have kindly offered suggestions for experiments with our digital modes. Tobias in Germany suggests that eliminating the brief silence (about 0.6 second). between the text introduction of an MFSK image and the image transmission, can reduce or eliminate missed image headers. This is because there is no interval of silence that can result in random characters that might interfere with the header. On this weekend's Shortwave Radiogram, the silent gaps before the MFSK64 images will be eliminated. The gap will still exist between the text and the MFSK32 image near the beginning of the program. Also, during most of the five-second delays after the RSID when modes change (to provide time for a manual mode change if necessary), 1500-Hz tones will be inserted instead of silence. This might eliminate the stray characters that can be annoying. A video of last weekend's Shortwave Radiogram (program 210) is provided by Scott in Ontario. The audio archive is maintained by Mark in the UK. Analysis is prepared by Roger in Germany. Here is the lineup for Shortwave Radiogram, program 211, 1-4 July 2021, in MFSK modes as noted:   1:41  MFSK32: Program preview   2:58  Christopher describes the heat wave in Oregon*   7:11  MFSK64: Hot nights hurt rice crop yields 10:51  This week's images* ** 28:35  MFSK32: Closing announcements * With image(s) ** As an experiment, the short silence between the text introduction and image has been eliminated. This might reduce the incidence of missed image headers.

Also look for a waterfall ID at the beginning of the show. thisisamusicshow@gmail.com   www.twitter.com/ThisIsAMusicSho/    @ThisIsAMusicSho   https://thisisamusicshow.com New York and Pennsylvania NBEMS nets. Most weekends, as KD9XB, I check in to the New York NBEMS (Narrow Band Emergency Messaging Software) net Saturday at 1200 UTC on 3584 kHz USB, and the Pennsylvania NBEMS net Sunday at 1130 UTC on 3583 kHz USB. Check-ins are usually in Thor 22, and messages are in MFSK32. Messages generally use the Flmsg add-on to Fldigi. If you are a radio amateur in eastern North America, feel free to check in. Outside the region, use an SDR in the eastern USA to tune in and decode. You do not need Flmsg to check in, and most of the messages can be read without Flmsg. If you can decode the net, send me an email to radiogram@verizon.net , or tweet to @SWRadiogram, and I will let them know you are tuned in.

Skywave Linux v5 is Now on Debian Sid!

Enjoy shortwave radio and overseas broadcasts, no matter where you are. Skywave Linux brings the signals to you. Broadcasting, amateur radio, maritime, and military signals are available at your fingertips.

Skywave Linux is a free and live computing environment you boot from a flash drive on your PC. Start it up, pick a radio server somewhere in the world, and tune in some stations.

Skywave Linux brings you the signals, whether or not you have a big outdoor antenna or can afford an expensive communications receiver. Hundreds and hundreds of volunteer operated radio servers are on the internet, which let you tune the airwaves and pick up broadcasts in excellent locations and on high performance equipment.

If you are into FT-8, PSK-31, JT-65, or other digimodes, you can decode the signals in Skywave Linux. It also has tools for decoding weather satellites, ACARS, and ADS-B signals.

Not only is Skywave Linux a prime system for software defined radio, but also for programming and coding. It has the Neovim editor and support for several programming languages: Python, Lua, Go, and Javascript. It is a great system for Web developers.

Debian Sid is now the base operating system which Skywave Linux builds upon. It is debloated, tuned, and tweaked for speed, so that you get the best possible computing performance. It works nicely on old laptops; it is super fast on a multi core, high spec PC.

For shortwave listening, weather satellite decoding, or airband monitoring, Skywave Linux is the system you want!
