Pi-Star (increase) - Dashboard - Gateway Activity Screen Section

Pi-Star (increase) - Dashboard - Gateway Activity Screen Section

I would like to offer a suggestion for the Pi-Star software. I believe this is something that would benefit more hams than just myself, especially Net Control operators.

Concerning the Gateway Activity screen. Is it possible to have a configuration setting to allow the user to set more than 20 rows of activity. Displaying a vertical scroll bar on the right to go back and retrieve calls that have rolled off the screen? On the left side of the row, the number of rows desired would be set in the cofiguration menu. There is plenty of room on the left where the time is displayed to number each row so you can scroll backwards to look at any call signs that were missed because of the roll off.


DSO188 matchbox oscilloscope

DSO188 matchbox oscilloscope

(Published on 27/10/2018)

With its dimensions of 57 mm by 34 mm by 11 mm you can call Daniu's DSO188 a matchbox oscilloscope. If you think this device is nothing more than a funny, but useless toy you are wrong. It allows you to observe signals up to 100 kHz. W

Anyone looking for a low cost scope to trouble shoot (a least audio and low frequency such as encoders) parts of their UBitx, these little oscilloscopes were on sale. I bought one. It only has a 1 Mhz bandwidth, but that is better than the 200 Khz bandwidth on many of the other cheap tiny scopes. 

NanoVNA vs Conventional Antenna Analyzer - MFJ-259C or Rig Expert AA-600

NanoVNA vs Conventional Antenna Analyzer - MFJ-259C or Rig Expert AA-600

I bought an MFJ-259C a few years ago. Cost me about $550. It’s ok but a bit poor quality. Rig Expert are better for sure, but I wouldn’t buy a conventional antenna analyzer any more. The Nano VNA is the way to go and dirt cheap. Like US$50. There’s one with a larger screen now too for a bit more that’s worth the extra money in my opinion.

There was a detailed review in QST in one of the recent issues (last three months – I forget which one).

They tested it and found it as good as ones 10x the price.

John Perkins: Confessions of an Economic Hitman

John Perkins   ---   How CIA Kills Countries

 I have read this guys book Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, and i personally believe it is one of the most important, interesting, shocking and enlightening books i have ever read. No wonder we have so many enemies around the world, no wonder we are targets of so called terrorism. Its not terrorism, terrorists are people trying to fight for their own lives which we have totally turned upside down and exploited them to the point of desperation.

 John Perkins, author of "Confessions of an Economic Hitman," describes how the United States of America, through corporations and the CIA, wages economic wars against Third World countries in order to control their resources. Where economics fail, the CIA will come in creating dissent to overthrow a non-compliant government. Where that fails, assassination is employed. Only after all these options have failed will the U.S. military become involved.

Apologies Of An Economic Hitman the movie by John Perkins

John Perkins was a prominent member of the top-secret team of "economic hit men", who used fraudulent financial reports, rigged elections, payoffs, extortion, sex, military coups and murder to create the global American empire after World War II. After a long internal struggle between his guilt and the fear of telling the truth, Perkins meets the daughter of an assassinated president and speaks out in front of an angry Latin-American audience.

Based on rare propagandistic material, film-noir style reconstructed sequences and exclusive filmed confessions of best selling author John Perkins ("Confessions of an Economic Hit Man", "The Secret History of the American Empire") this fascinating documentary sheds light on the unknown mechanisms used by the rulers of the modern world, the reason why most of the world's population lives in poverty.

The definitive answer to President Bush's question "why do they hate us?"..
