Hello Every Body, Take a look at the new software RSSI meter features from PA1OKZ Foxz box on: http://www.peildoos.nl/ all in Dutch but you guys can understand it even if not Dutch.... |

Hello Every Body, Update software Arduino Doppler Now with Agrelo with Quality %ddd\q ddd= 0 to 360 degrees q= 1 to 9 quality factor = doppler tone amplitude for elevation screen. hmc5883 included arduino+doppler + compass not yet ready. Quality works in Mymapping.exe program. |

Hello Every Body, A new SoundDoppler150aAll.zip soon on the site PI4WAG. Last older update SoundDoppler149rAll.zip contained a bug in SoundDoppler.exe A run time 13 error sometimes hi New is Averaged Doppler tone amplitude now... And if you get the agrelo info out of a comport it now also contains %xxx/q [12] |

Hello Every Body, I have a nice proposal --- Quote --- Subject: Optional transceiver kit for Tesla and other cars Proposal from a licensed radio-amateur (Netherlands PA3BNX). Addressed to: Tesla, ARRL, Yeasu, Kenwood, Icom, VERON, VRZA and Radio forums Hello all, I have some ideas/wishes for making the super all electric cars more attractive then ever before ! also for radio-amateurs who are mostly at the front of wireless technologies and communications innovations. It would be marvellous to have the frequency-display and knobs for a transceiver running and displayed on the Tesla 17 inch touch screen as a software option. using the same speakers and microphone used for cellphone in the car. Just plug in a black box transceiver and add a antenna Every equipped car would also have APRS standard on board because a GPS is already in the Tesla cars. Maybe even easy to show VHF/UHF APRS information on the Maps available already on the 17 inch touch screen. It would be a novelty if it was integrated in the car equipment. No licensed radio amateur has to worry about how to mount and get a safe to use radio transmitter in his new all electric car. Just a interface to an ad on transceiver VHF/UHF (SDR like) with approx 50 watt rf output Now a days Radio amateurs use FM phone transceivers but also the digital s peach modes as DMR and D-star could be included. and an all automatic electric hiding efficient 2m / 70cm transmit/receive antenna as an option for the Tesla cars There are about 800,000 licensed radio amateurs in the USA already Suppose if just 1% has or buys a Tesla with this transceiver option it might be enough to spark this idea to reality. The radio community would maybe involved in writing the software. Some afterthought. How good is the Tesla in the EMC field ? (Because receivers don't like unwanted radiation harmonics of other for receive electronics. So see what the radio community and Tesla motors and OEM transceiver ma-nu manufactures think about this idea. Maybe in the software also a Radio Direction Finding module can be done See my projects at: http://qrz.com/db/pa3bnx p's. I do not have a Tesla-car yet because I cannot afford it yet !!

Hello Every Body, I have a question and updated proposal Does a Tesla Car has a cigar lighter plug ? I hope not because smoking is bad and the connector is bad as high current power plug. A modern car like a Tesla EV must get a universal power accessory plug I think. Or just some sort of power USB plug. Witch does not come lose when vibrating and easy to insert and disconnect. I hear many radio licensed radio amateur truckers today having problems with mounting there rigs and installing a transmit/receive antenna installing on there trucks. So I think there must come a universal solution for them to to add an optional kit totally integrated to the instrument panel safe to use and sophisticated New truck should have also large touch-screens with gps (APRS) and all functions done through that as much as possible. So the new VHF/UHF (SDR with D-Star+DMR+Fusion+All Mode) black box should also be used in the truck as well as in a Tesla EV I think. To make it even more popular it must have CB(27MHz) and PMR(446MHz) mode for unlicensed amateurs. I think something like this should be the development by the major Radio manufacturer's together. I even thought of a kit/option type IYKM Brand (Icom+Yeasu+Kenwood+Motorola) I think IYK name would be fast em brassed because amateurs like call signs. No more need for microphone and or speaker needed any more because you use the cellphone ones. The major brands then should work together to produce a superb irresistible radio transceiver mobile product that every trucker/driver wants to have in near future. It also could include the public broadcast radio with DAB+ AM FM The black box builders would all benefit from this kind of approach I think many car/truck drivers would one have installed from factory if it was available as an optional kit But how to think of police, ambulance and fire brigade communication that can be done with the same transceiver option just the software has to change on the touch screen car computer The experiment for the licensed radio amateurs would be to write apps and maybe new modulation types. A huge selling point could be that the local repeater VHF/UHF Broad Cast stations frequency list are automatic downloaded and made available while driving. from the internet and installed in the touch-screen computer and not in the black (SDR) transceiver box. It could do also SSTV / APRS /PSK31 and other digital modes Even a waterfall display module on the touch screen computer. So no more USB cables and and difficult to find an use so called (example: chirp) program upload programs needed any more. So to have a choice of a standard integrated car radio module or a sophisticated car radio module with transceiver modes in it would be challenging an have a good profit and sales opportunity I think All radio manufacturer, car builders and radio amateurs would benefit from this solution.
