Before I got in to HAM, someone had me image HamClock on a Pi for him, not knowing what any of it was. Then he sent me photos of it being used in his shack, and I thought it was pretty cool. Now that I’ve got myself in to deep with radios, I want to dive deeper, and do something I’m familiar with like the Pi.

Great talk on HamPi Kevin. I have been active on FT8 for over 3 years. Bought a IC-7300 a year back and just received the HamPi 4B 8G version after Kevin’s Utube. Connected USB configured FT8 out of the box and within 5 minutes had my first QSO. Outstanding, simple very cost effective way to get active on WSJTX, WSPR and other digital modes. G4PEY. Extra. Found to be as good on FT8 as my i5 Dell. It is less prone to RFI.

So I've had a chance to go through this. I will say it is excellent in terms of ease. Pretty easy. Just image a sd card and you're off to the races. Very little fuss. I was a bit annoyed at the QSLWare - an annoying pop up message that the author will show you how to get rid of AFTER you send him a qsl card. Easily undone if you know what your doing. Most people don't. I also didn't like the fact that this build will use my unused CPU cycles to look for aliens or whatever. Give me a choice. Don't just do something like that. I ended up wiping the SD card clean, and trying out KM4ACK's build a pi script. A bit more involved, but I get choices as to what gets installed. No annoying pop ups, and nothing I didn't ask for gets installed or configured. This is the 2nd time I've tried it and it is much improved and the results are pretty cool. I would encourage people to experiment and use what best works for them!

Additional to WSJTX and WSPR as on Ham Pi. WSJTX performed as good as my Full Windows 10 PC the only shortfall I have found is when the band is fully utilised, on receive and decoding, it can take awhile to display all the QSOs. This can be overcome by switching the Display tab to display CQ callsigns only. The other minor problem is the TUNE function does not work - but only on 20m. (Might be a good thing). On WSPR the multi band setup tends to crash when switching to another band.

Kevin, thanks for the review. You forgot to mention one very important point, which I only discovered just as I was about to write the image and was reading the README.docx. This statement - QUOTE: "ATTENTION: So I don’t get publicly tarred and feathered for not disclosing this openly, please be aware by running this image on your Raspberry Pi that you consent to giving your idle cpu cycles to radio telescope research, such as looking for pulsars. If you do not agree with this, do not run the image. Again, this will not interfere with your usage - this only uses cpu cycles when your Raspberry Pi is idle. Disk use is also minimal. (1/1000 or less) (For what it’s worth, I also operate my Raspberry Pi 4 this way.) Note that an exception to this requirement has been added for EMCOMM (ARES/RACES) and Field use where no AC power is available." No option - you can only not bother to install if you don't agree - I am planning to use a RaspPi in the field primarily and am making a man-pack portable setup, so this is now useless... Not to mention I will not use on principle as this goes against one of my most strongly held principles for Linux - CHOICE. I'd probably try it and see how it was IF I HAD A CHOICE. I know it isn't your fault, but I think it should be mentioned. Since I don't have a choice I will simply not bother wasting my time. I'll instead clean install RaspbianOS and use Jason KM4ACK's github script to install everything I need. I'm familiar enough with Linux and RaspPi 's to install whatever else I need if I'm missing something. You might want to check out his script and review it also.

This! Man, I was just coming here to comment on this. I was poking around the file system and noticed it was loading boinc (Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing) on every boot. It's not that I don't think it's a good cause, but some people plan to operate in the field, perhaps on a mobile tethered network that's data capped, plus SD cards are notorious for wearing out quickly. He could at least allow some sort of tick box to enable/disable the "feature". That said, if you would like it disabled, it's a very simple task. Open a terminal (CTRL+ALT +T) then follow these instructions: enter: sudo nano ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart delete the line with : @/home/pi/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/boinc.sh save the file by pressing CTRL+O followed by CTRL+X then enter: sudo reboot This will prevent boinc from being launched after boot up. PS There's another "nagging" line in there that may be of interest to some too ;)

The link you have in the description is not a link to the img file. The "source code" link is just that - source code. I did a quick search and found the Groups dot io group for Ham Pi and found a link to the latest prebuilt image there, just fyi. Maybe update it in the description. Edit: Thanks for the update, great video. I sent a note to my local club, I think this might just be one of our discussion topics at next month's meeting. We're still doing meetings via Zoom, I think this sort of topic works well with online meetings.

The Readme and license both mention BOINC is installed. It is performing radio telescope research -- looking for pulsars. The new license allows you to opt out of it. de W3DJS

Don, look at the KM4ACK "Build a Pi". I prefer to be able to easily update the Ham software without re-imaging the SD card every time and reconfiguring the HAM software again. Jason makes all that very easy.

@@CodeMasseur So have to reimage the pi and the SD card every time? I think I'd rather just run a script for the updates and rebuilds. I am a linux admin and software developer. This is how updates are done. Not a complete reimage of the HD for each application update. BTW, this is not anything against the image. I think there are reasons for it but there are reasons against it. I like Jason's approach and I just want to distinguish it from the HamPi image.

Nope, same name but radically different. If you'll notice on that linked project, he has the user download and start with the basic raspberry pi os and then walks the user through installing the ham related software. That's more of an instructional guide, where Dave's image is a fully configured image with all the ham software installed right out of the box, so to speak. Very different.
@roger58094 жыл бұрын
Realize my mistake in saying “exact project”. I understand they are quite different and do appreciate the video you did. It’s just that I did a Google search to look for other info on this and ran into the other version. Thought it strange that this new version was named the same (thus finding the old version) and that the logo is extremely similar. That’s all.
