    Found a AM and SSB base station.

    Sounds like a plan for disaster. Make a video!

    VMWare's purchase by Broadcom

    I haven't bought Broadcom anything for years, if I can help it. Sometimes, there is no other option. Latest reports from the field are renewals are 9x-10x what they were previously, and there is no negotiation. Imagine a smaller shop going from a 100k renewal to 900k-1MM. Proxmox is sort of...

    SDS100/SDS200: SDS Waterfall - Yea, Nay, or Meh?

    That's why the descriptions need expanding; it's vague and left up to the reader to interpret.

    SDS100/SDS200: SDS Waterfall - Yea, Nay, or Meh?

    What's the difference between "nay" and "meh"? I think the descriptions could have been better. For example, I cannot vote, because I don't see it worth $20 to test it out on an SDS when I have an SDR sitting right here.

    BCD160DN/BCD260DN: Is this a new Uniden model? BCD260DN

    There was no guesswork. You could type in BCD160 or BCD260 into the search bar at Uniden.com and it would take you there.

    SDRTrunk 0.6.1 Beta 1

    Removed my entire config and restarted v0.6.1-beta1. No tuner attached and CPU is still 15-17%.

    SDRTrunk 0.6.1 Beta 1

    No waterfall. I never use it. Strangely enough, the memory indicator keeps climbing, then resets. My processor is a 12th Gen Intel Core i7-12700. I do have power management turned on, however, that wouldn't cause SDRtrunk to sit there and use CPU. Logs show nothing of concern. It's...

    SDRTrunk 0.6.1 Beta 1

    True but even without any SDR connected, it uses 15% (ish). With an SDR listening, it goes to 20%, so it makes me curious what it is doing.

    SDRTrunk 0.6.1 Beta 1

    Just via "Listen" in SDRtrunk. I don't have the previous version, but I'll need to investigate. It's good to hear yours is working properly, so it doesn't sound like a bug. I think I did have a wildcard range added at one time but removed it. I wonder if that wasn't completely removed.

    SDRTrunk 0.6.1 Beta 1

    Running 0.6.1 Beta 1 with an AirSpy R2. I noticed I am getting audio from every talkgroup on the system. The audio shows no alias name. In debugging, I ensured I have no alias with a talkgroup range. I turned off the listen parameter for every TG in my alias list. Now, I no longer get audio...

    VMWare's purchase by Broadcom

    I used VirtualBox for a period but one update tore my lab apart (2010-ish). I vowed not to use it again. I've read that Hyper-V is on the chopping block, being replaced by Azure Arc. That's getting no rave reviews either. ESXi was my top choice for a free hypervisor. I'm testing proxmox...

    AnyDesk Breach

    For one, the secret key is just a base32 number. So you don't - I repeat DON'T have to depend on big corporations for your 2FA needs. The Keepass password manager with the Keepass OTP plug-in, the Aegis Android App (available at F-Droid as well as Google Play) or the paid for version of the...

    Where do you buy your fuses?

    What about something like Brzylgy?

    Unication Bluetooth and F150

    It seems to be an issue with the newer Bluetooth in cars trying to connect to the older Bluetooth 2.0 in the devices. This is the one spot of the Gx series that is annoying. It would be great if a headphone jack existed; I used the one on the Minitor 2 all the time back in the day.

    Any risks of running an SDR continuously?

    The R2 gets slightly warm, nothing like the cheap sticks. I put a few feet on the bottom of mine, by using those small cabinet door bumpers, to allow some more airflow. I don't think it made a difference, to be honest.

    VMWare's purchase by Broadcom

    I assume Fusion, and possibly Workstation, are being looked at for a similar cut.

    AnyDesk Breach

    MFA, namely 2FA, was a thing long before TeamViewer. I was implementing RSA SecurID in the mid-90s. Why is Authy, Google, and MS "BS" and KeePassOTP okay? They are equivalent. I prefer a pair of YubiKeys whenever possible, but not every place supports them, so have software OTP as well.
