I've run out of time for trying to get the Signal Sleuth sorted. The OTA 'update' turned out to be a downgrade. It removed the total display, which I heavily use for testing. Also the unit factory resets first powerup after every config, wiping out the @wiglenet API key. I've IDE…

Super quick and brutal first impressions of @perplexity_ai @comet AI Browser: Hate the music during the install/start up. Way too soft and dreamy graphics. 1995 called and want their icon back...

I'm going to be a tech 'roadie' for a conference and needed to double-check my EDC load sheet. Leatherman and stuff in the pouch at the front right goes on the belt, the rest in the LTT backpack. I'm sure I've forgotten something I'm gonna need.

Far out! The OTA update feature on the wardriver.uk is pretty cool, BUT, while the A.ino took about 3 minutes, the B.ino is going to take <checks calculator> EIGHT and a half HOURS! That #wardrive I had planned, yeah, happening today...not today.

Need to phone a friend... The 'New Samples' column. Am I reading it right? It's based on the scan speed of the rig, so a higher number is better? Is that data directly indicative of the rig's overall performance? @SecureThisNow @463n7_57 @pejacoby @wiglenet

Far out! 10 years using @wiglenet and I've never noticed this. @ZSsixSHN just showed me you get different hover-over text on the stats page. I guess Steve was bored waiting for the queue to clear. Some of them are really funny. Will leave it to you to explore.

My son just sent me his photo of tonight's SpaceX Starlink launch from Vandenberg Space Port. We still have our Telegram bot alert set up for them. I miss seeing them, so my son keeps me updated when he can. Tonight was one for the books. Just amazing.

Just back from a 1am, 100 mile #wardrive. Still tweaking the #SignalSleuth setup. Slowly getting the numbers up to beating the amazing Samsung S20 in a #WigleFin on the roof. Lots of deer out and about on the roads tonight. #AllTheWiFI

#earthquake M 6.2 - 24 km ENE of Mene Grande, Venezuela Depth 7.8 km Looks to be a somewhat isolated / sparsely populated area, but I'm sure it was felt strongly in the nearby towns.

I'm always looking for ways to make ACARS more human and 'approachable'. This table is a fresh look that I have never seen before. Nice work and thanks for the tag. Glad you find the site and data useful.
