I wish I could make this one simple, but we are getting into complex territory. Please read the instructions and follow along carefully. This is not something I recommend doing without knowing your way around Linux, and so the basics are not covered(it would be too long). this should let you share the same soundcard between direwolf and other apps […]
After some security research in the packet radio BBS communities, I noticed a major lack of best security practices. I wrote a blog post on it here if your curious. I pointed out WHY things are problematic in the cybersecurity field, and gave a few pointers. This post is a follow up that I can share with others that shows […]

Combine this with the computer knowledge and passion it takes to develop the applications that often go along with the hobby, you wouldn’t think something as novel as cyber security would be an issue. But […]

I think we are still sleeping on a lot of use case for this. Youtube channels such as TemporarilyOffline have highlighted this […]
A user over on the forum QRZ has posted a thread with a video of what sounds like a mass jamming of the ham radio bands in Cuba. The user reported that he was relaying conversation over the radio on SSB (Single Side Band) with another operator about the situation in the country when the frequency he was using was […]
If you follow my YouTube, you know we like to save money. We’ve tried the $20 power supply I used on my HF radio here: https://youtu.be/0C6lu_oomn0, but now were going to try something a little different. Why not convert an old ATX PSU into a ham radio power supply? I’ll start off by saying this isn’t optimal, as computer PSUs […]
This is a write up from an old YouTube video, but the content, and method is all relevant and still working. If you follow my work, you know I like to work with what I have, and I’m always on the lookout for a cheap “hack”. Considering all you need for this is an RTL-SDR(37$), and an Raspberry-Pi, (38$) this […]
