  1. Hey #hamradio folks: what are your thoughts about #AREDN? I'm thinking about getting into and wondered if/how any #FediHams are using it

    #arednmesh

  2. @AJ9BM those "SDR" are a power supply line. We have 12, 24 and 48V on that rail ready to power APRS radio, and POE switches for #arednmesh :)

  3. @T_X I still have my #arednmesh routers. You can make them play together if you change the #ssid of the #hsmmmesh routers

  4. Has anyone else ever setup an openstreetmap tile sever for #AREDN #AREDNMESH purposes? I tested with the northeast region of the US and was able to get it working in under a couple of hours, so I expanded to North America and I'm in about 12 hours already and its still working away. I hate to think how long it would take to render all the tiles on the globe on a raspberry pi. Good thing I'm on an SSD. #OSM

  5. My PR to #arednmesh has been merged into the repository earlier this week as commit 74810d01b4a54bfc2809c97bda5ca048f9eb12fe.

    It fixed a bug that was introduced during the code translation to LUA.

    The bug: It was not possible anymore to open ports range from the GUI in the port forwarding area.

    Reason 1: REGEX has hyphen not properly escaped.

    Reason 2 : Port range validation logic was reversed. The code was validating a port range having an higher start point than the ending point.

    Along those 2 fixes and some discussions with dev team, another tweak has been made in the GUI code to escape blank space if any in front of the port range so the value is properly reused later for internal uses.

    This was my first code contribution to AREDN Mesh. I already look forward to help when my skills allows to.

  6. Today has been not been as productive as I wanted, but it has been a good one!

    2 years ago, I started a project called AEWS, to collect data from various public sources using #Python with the goal to retrieve power outages, road closures and weather. Once retrieve, the data is formatted into 2 formats. The report format is a text file using markdown format and there is also the #aprs format to send abnormalities over RF in a group messages for all #amateurradio around to get the information if they wished to.

    The goal for that little piece of software is to automate sending important information to operators deployed in #emcomm operations.

    Last year, I was looking at a way to get some helps on some coming projects from fellow hams that are not coders but know enough to give a hand. I then found #nodered . After a bit of testing, Node-Red has been adopted as the official way to make things happen at our association.

    So since then, we are migrating everything possible to Node-Red. Few weeks ago, I started to migrate AEWS toward Node-Red and more urgent projects came in, so it has been set aside. Today I've been able to put a bit of work into AEWS.

    Starting from scratch or almost, I've took care to make it modular and integrated it with our #mattermost and #zabbix instances running out off our #aredn mesh. We now can receive reports on MatterMost, on our web portal and receive abnormalities through RF on APRS and via review them through Zabbix dashboard. Also small part of the data are available through our #TAK server, more work is required for that part to bring full data into it.

    Most part of the power outage system is done. Few tweaks and getting site specific status to be shown on all platform and it can be called done. Maybe it will be done by the week-end so another module can be attacked before end of the year!

    Cheers to productive and unproductive days!

  7. Tinkering together a mobile #arednmesh go box. Harbor Freight ammo box, cheap 6Ah LiFEPo4 battery, a $20 solar charge controller, a 12->24v converter, 4 port POE injector and some ethernet bulkhead connectors. Will add fuses, switches, buttons, a USB charger, and a hookup for solar panel (I have a small 10W and a larger 100W). Pictured with my budget TPLINK CPE210. #projects
