Jumping in late but wouldn’t a KiwiSDR with a BB AI have enough horsepower to run the receiver and wsprdaemon? Cooling would have to be addressed with a heatsink addition. Steve KD2OM .

Yes I think I muddied the waters by referring to KiwiSDR when I meant the RaspberrySDR. Anyways, it's all clear now and thanks to you both for being patient with me and answering my questions to the

Hi Joe, To be clear, if you are using a RaspberySDR one would configure the Kiwi's address as localhost:8073. Glenn's configuration [Pi wifi client with its own PSU] ---- wifi ----[Yellow Thing

Hi Joe, I couldn't find your mention of using the RaspberrySDR in the thread, so that would have confused Glenn and me. The standalone RaspberrySDR is a very clean HW and SW architecture which I wish

Yeah you are still not getting what I'm proposing Glenn, but Rob's message just now answered my question that it should be possible. In the scheme I'm proposing there is no second hardware connecting

To access the Kiwi you have a choice of a  wired LAN connector (static or DHCP), USB A connector (port number statically assigned by BB).  Either of these *might* be connected to a router/dongle or

No one has yet tried your configuration, but it should work and be easy to configure. In the wsprdaemon.conf file define the Kiwi receiver's IP:PORT address as localhost:8073 -- Rob

I think I'm missing something here. You keep mentioning wired LAN connections. I'm talking about running the SDR stand alone with wspr daemon running on the same pi that is connected to the SDR

Only measurement will tell for sure but it isn't uncommon for a even a co-located device to create a loop with power supply and wired LAN connections. Shielding probably won't matter or help. If the

Hi Glenn If I can run the SDR and WD on a single Pi in a shielded box with no LAN then the only external connections will be a short battery lead and the coaxial lead in. The phased pair I

Joe, Be careful not to underestimate the amount of CM rejection you may need. A Mini-Circuits T1-1 transformer, for example, has around 1 pf interwinding capacitance. That may produce

Hi Joe, Clint KA7OEI has written up an extensive evaluation of the RaspberrySDR and a brief addendum on the Flydog at: https://ka7oei.blogspot.com/2020/09/comparing-kiwisdr-and-raspberrysdr.html Tom

Thanks Rob and Glenn for your comments. I am doing tests with a pair of phased loops so good current balance and they are each coupled to their feedline through an isolation transformer at the

I recall that my Pi4 consumes only .5A while running WD. But I run the Pi remotely and have it connect via wifi to the Kiwi so as to eliminate the ground loop which would be introduced by having the

Joe, To be honest, though I have a portable system intended to approach the propagated noise floor over LF-HF I continue to learn about impediments to achieving this.  My current best method,

Hi Glenn Thanks for the very quick and informative response. Since I have no experience with the Pi, before I buy one do you have any other recommendations given that I intend to run this from a

Joe, You understand this correctly. Even an RPI 3 can handle simple spotting, noise and SNR measurement when used with WD. Data can be recorded apart from an Internet connection and

Hello to all, I am Joe ve3vxo and have been running a Seed KiwiSDR for a couple of years now. I have been using it to evaluate low band receive antennas using the wspr extension. Recent experiments

Overflowing uploads.d/... suggests that your WD server is failing to upload to wsprnet.org and/or wsprdaemon.org. To get a list of spot and noise files cache for uploading execute: find

Hi Yuri, WD v2.x is designed to perform almost no logging when started in its default verbosity level 0 mode, e.g.: 'WD -a' Many sites have been running for months without overflowing their file
