Hello all, I'm new to the group, and I'm planning to build a solar powered Packet public bbs, to be installed in a remote mountain site, and I'm evaluating if building it using a Raspberr-Pi would be a good choice. Do you have some advice? I'm still planning, and wondering what to do, mostly because all I have right now is the site owner authorization..

Thanks in advance, Tommaso IZ2QYZ

SDR

 

I just ordered a Raspberry PI from Newark and it is on its way.
I would like to use it as a back end to my UHFSDR. I know I will need a USB soundcard.
I plan on using the I2C pins to control the Si570 and some GPIO for filter selection and PTT. Anyone got an SDR program working. My ultimate plan would be to make the UHFSDR/Raspberry combo a stand alone transceiver.

Adafruit has a altered version of wheezy, called occidentalis ( latin for black raspberry).
It gives wifi dongle drivers, etc and scripts to use i2c and other hardware, sensor devices that can connect to her selection of raspberrry pi sheilds and accesories.

I have no tried a wireless dongle other than the 2.4GHz Microsoft keyboard and mouse.? It doesn¡¯t work correctly under any RPI image.
In addition, it does not work with any Linux distribution I¡¯ve tried other than Fedora.? The issue is that the keyboard driver appears to present repeating characters to the OS even when I am not pressing a key.?

I didnt notice you wrote you saw the leds cycling, on and off. The connection may be an issue, to the tv.
My first connection, to a vga monitor through a vga adapter to the rca video out recepticle, had terrible resoution, ?480 at best. Big blocky fuzzy fonts etc.
?My second attempt to my new ?46 inch hd tv through the hdmi, was dead, no image o the tv.
I disconneted the tv and reconnect to the hdmi outlet that was connected to the ?blueray player worked great, with fantastic resolution. It turned out, this is the secound tv that had 1or more hdi out lets that didt work, from the factory.

Adafruit has a altered version of wheezy, called occidentalis ( latin for black raspberry).
It gives wifi dongle drivers, etc and scripts to use i2c and other hardware, sensor devices that can connect to her selection of raspberrry pi sheilds and accesories.
Check them out at .
Pretty neat site.

I have no tried a wireless dongle other than the 2.4GHz Microsoft keyboard and mouse.? It doesn¡¯t work correctly under any RPI image.

In addition, it does not work with any Linux distribution I¡¯ve tried other than Fedora.? The issue is that the keyboard driver appears to present repeating characters to the OS even when I am not pressing a key.? So, the only way I can get them to work is with non-wireless keyboard and mouse.? Unfortunately for me, my portable does not have a functional touchpad and the shift on the keyboard doesn¡¯t work.? So, I either have to use a direct connect keyboard or do the development and work on another computer.? Ugh.
