Is this yahoo group stuck?


 

Dear Members,

I have not seen a message since May 31... It it stuck... or did everyone go
to
sleep?? I found a neat book on some sight and ordered it from Amazon..
It is called "Raspberry Pi for Secret Agents.... Very interesting... for a
beginner like me...

Take care and have fun...

Hey Dave.

I know the book and have read it when I could check it from the local library here.

I posted a link for downloading a pdf file of the book if you want to have it on your puter to
read a few weeks ago when we had a discussion about the Motion software and install.

This may not be the same link I posted in the other message but you can download it here:


Run your virus program before opening just to make sure it does not download a virus
or malware onto your system. That's the one good thing about running Linux here, I can
do things that I would not dare do with a windoze system :) Doesn't mean I am not cautious,
it's just that I don't nave to worry as much.

Enjoy!

OH, btw!

I do not condone the piracy of books but I do believe you should have the option to
peruse any book to see if you want to purchase it or not. I have purchased a number
of books in the past that I wish I had not because of them not being helpful for the
reason I purchased it for.

So support your local library so that you don't purchase anything that isn't what you
needed :)

Sorry if I have offended anyone and you haven't mentioned it yet.

I was kind of wondering the same thing. ?I got the same e-book you did and haven't had time to read it yet but it should prove to be pretty interesting!

Thanks...Steve

I'll post something ..... tonight is the monthly 2 meter transmitter hunt and participants are asked to run APRS to beacon their position. Although I have a 4 Line display on my TinyTrak4 APRS TNC to display the position information I prefer a LCD flat screen showing the map and hunt stations so out comes the RPi that I loaded Xastir to last year. If I recall, the Kantronics KPC-3 TNC needs a jumper for RTS and CTS control signal to enable it then I connected the TNC RX and TX RS-232 level signals thru a little eBay level converter for the RPi Host serial port 3.3V requirement. Further in the past I modified the RPi/Debian boot file where the host serial parameter is located. Xastir works well enough to display local signals on the map but I have never used a GPS with Xastir to transmit my location, for tonight I'll just receive only. A120 watt DC/AC inverter can power the LCD and RPi while mobile. If I recall there is a 'Y' cable for the KPC-3 TNC for GPS input.

Anyway, this is my post for the group .... Bill K6ACJ
