How many bands/modes are you able to run without using up the CPU capacity or overheating it?

running wspr only (not FSTW4), The answer is between 4-7.  8 is too much and I have not tried to fine the sweet spot. At the $, run two and split the load!

I tried to install wd on the Inovato; but there was an error message at the end.  I previously set up VNC and the Tailscale mesh VPN on this Inovato (works great!) so wonder if that has anything to do with the error message.  And if so, wondering what I would need to change.  This is the record of my attempt:

Hi Bruce,

As the last line in your email says:
Thu 02 Feb 2023 04:11:57 UTC: proxy_connection_manager() wsprdaemon.conf has not yet been configured. Edit it and run this again
 

So you need to edit your ~/wsprdaemon/wsprdaemon.conf file to define the IP address of your Kiwi(s0 and the reception schedule's bands and receive modes(s)

Rob

Rob,

Thanks for your guidance, I didn't recall any error message with the default wsprdaemon.conf when I set up my first instance on a Pi way back in 2021(?), and I guess I got thrown off too by the "proxy" term in the error message, thinking it had something to do with the Tailscale VPN.  Looking forward to editing the wsprdaemon.conf with the Kiwi address etc, which sounds like will eliminate the error message.

I must say the tailscale mesh VPN is a delight to use, allowing me to finally stop exposing ports on the WAN side for an assortment of devices I have at three locations. And so long to (gasp) remote VNC access via an unsecured public WAN port.  Years ago I used the Hamachi VPN service but that service seems to have gone byebye.
