Re: new sBitx software

 

Perfect Farhan.?

It would be great to have dedicated place (repo?) where we could find complete image of latest version of SBITX V2 software to burning it on SD card for quick replacing in radio whrn some changes done, as same as for making backup SD card.
Many thanks Farhan for your effort.?

Re: Remote Audio sBitx v2

 

I don't know how I got the 30 second delay, but I did hear. Not, I'm experiencing about a 6 second delay. There must be some buffering somewhere.

Re: Needed: replacement PA transformer for sBitx (T8)

 

Thanks Mick. I knew the description was somewhere.
And for Jerry and anyone else who has this problem I hope my photos are helpful, if only to show that it¡¯s possible to fix with a little effort and care.?

If it happens again I have eight FT50-43 toroids in my junk box and I¡¯ll build a new, bigger transformer. I¡¯m assuming that mine failed during normal operation but with bad luck, and that a bigger one with 3 turns of Teflon wire would perform similarly but with a greater safety margin. If that¡¯s not a reasonable assumption I¡¯d appreciate further advice. The larger transformer would not fit in the same space and would require a few millimeters of standoff space and therefore longer leads, but with luck it might not cause any additional problem¡ªafter all it¡¯s not a VHF device¡­at least not intentionally!

Re: Remote Audio sBitx v2

 

I am pretty good with audio programming. I wrote voip protocols, switches and clients in a previous life, but the webrtc is just too restrictive for my liking.
Never the less, there is a simplicity to being just able to open and url on any device and dx. So, no clients, just the web ui.

I am running remotely with Safari on a Mac Mini M1. I hear the audio clearly in the Mac speakers, but it is delayed by 30 seconds.

The reason that I know it is delayed that I also hear the audio coming from the radio's speaker. Is there a way to mute the radio audio when running remotely?

I am going to add a text to speech anyway. Sbitx is committed to accessiblity.
The idea is to have an eyes-free radio. Eventually, the gtk gui will gve away to a text ui.

Scott,

I didn't do the iptables stuff, I just access via port 8080.

I didn't do the desktop shortcut.

I think there is a bug in the sqlite command to create the database (around line 150)

cd data?
sqlite3 < create_db.sql

I think the second line needs to be:

sqlite3 sbitx.db < create_db.sql

Otherwise it doesn't create the database, which isn't an issue as the program creates one on startup, if needed.

Re: Using an external HDMI TV Monitor

 

Well behaved pulseaudio applications automatically benefit by installing pipewire at the os level .? Pipewire has connections for alsa and pulseaudio applications?automatically.? So in essence it should only take an os upgrade.? I would have done this already on my Dev1 but I am still having HW issues from the v2 upgrade to sort out.

nice guide to tools available

Re: Sbitx v2 without touchscreen?

 

I assume you used the radio speaker and mic, or have you got the audio working over the network?

Also, the DE had a problem hearing interference from the Pi¡¯s WiFi. Has that been fixed?

At least install the sqlite3. The logger might crash without it.

I missed the port detail.? Now it works!? Funny how the details matter.??Thanks for the help.

By the way, did you perform all the "updates" in the install.txt file?? I wasn't having any problems, so I didn't.

Thanks again, Scott


Re: Sbitx v2 without touchscreen?

 

Btw, you can use the v2 from any device on the same wifi as the radio. You dont need an hdmi cable.
I used it with a friend's ipad. It was addictive. I was checking into the morning 7015 net from my bed!
