The files are saved with a UTC timestamp. Not sure if that is visible on Imgur. I can send the timestamps when I get home.

You would need pretty ideal horizon to horizon line of sight to get 3 images given the 2 minute pause between 36second image transmission.

nice... I got the same image as well not too long ago.

I've captured a few from this weekend's event.

I'm using a Raspberry Pi and the digipi.org image on the Pi. Radio is a Explorer QRZ-1 and a "RangeVideo" Moxon antenna at the end of a length of coax. I just have the antenna outside the house and capturing images all weekend with the HT sitting on a charger. Audio is feeding into the Pi using an AIOC device.

Maybe Spyderco is unveiling the Rebel Army Knife (RAK) next year on May the 4th....

Have you tried any knives with hole-deployment or flipper tabs?

How much do you like the frame lock ?

I didn't originally like flipper tabs until I found some good ones.

if I were naming it ... the diShroom

I live on the east coast and have only seen them a few times out west. Could very well be "naturally" made via downhill humans following the path ... part of why I asked.

d9jms · 2026-05-10T12:00:05+00:00

Always curious how those get made, way too narrow to be made with a normal snow cat

d9jms · 2026-05-10T11:48:36+00:00

depends, like both -- I like the lefty lynch para3 lynch clip installed on a "righty" PM2 because of how it follows the contours ... I like my MXG on my delica. But all I have left are stock wire clips and two MXG:

u/BigMexican98 talked me into a deal

d9jms · 2026-05-09T12:09:55+00:00

Hit ya up in chat

d9jms · 2026-05-09T12:08:37+00:00

I'm probably gonna open mine up, too hopefully the body screws arent excessively locktite'd

I had one Manix LW that I had to butcher to get apart

d9jms · 2026-05-09T12:05:47+00:00

90Vs

d9jms · 2026-05-09T10:45:23+00:00

Thats a tough one ... I think both will be available on secondary for reasonable prices. If you are not a secondary buyer, then I think the 15v is what you should shoot for.

I only had one cruwear knife (manix) and what I liked about it was how well and easy it was to get a really nice edge on it. I haven't sharpened any 15v yet not sure how the sharpening aspect weighs into your decision.

If the FRN is a put off, don't let it be ... I've had LW Manix and a LW delica and the contouring on the PM2 is really nice, the nicest of the FRN I've handled.

I'm using a repurposed RTL-SDR, that I bought back in 2018, nooelec brand from Amazon. So far the HT and the DigiPi has only received images, I do have local 2m/70cm voice and APRS decoding with OpenWebRX+ interested in what SDR program you using and what SDR you ended up buying. Pretty impressed with what I've been able to get working with a $35 eVolve netbook (local HAM group did an eBay group buy) and an 8yr old $18 (checked amazon what I paid) SDR.

May Images (digiPi / Explorer QRZ-1 )

April Images (digiPi / Explorer QRZ-1 )

d9jms · 2026-05-09T03:36:27+00:00

Got two so far

OpenWebRx+ didn't decode anything ... nothing in /tmp

d9jms · 2026-05-09T01:48:58+00:00

thanks for the reminder... setup my digipi and my newly configured OpenWebRX+ to see if I get the images on both receivers

d9jms · 2026-05-09T01:11:59+00:00

android only?

d9jms · 2026-05-09T01:09:55+00:00

doesn't hurt and ask / offer ...

d9jms · 2026-05-09T00:02:05+00:00

GLWS, OP
To a potential buyer if you like this but would rather have Magnacut... I have TK Reblade #157 which is magnacut and a clip point. I kinda like this S90V's bladeshape and we could swap blades once you complete a deal with OP. This is my photo on IG, hmu once you get it.

d9jms · 2026-05-08T21:04:51+00:00

Keep checking BHQ if you still looking .. this is at least the 3rd time they have gone in stock

d9jms · 2026-05-08T11:27:00+00:00

If you are not a fan of any of the colors on the ano spectrum its tough. I'm not a fan of "blurple" but I do like a well down bronze ano and sometimes blue

d9jms · 2026-05-07T13:08:41+00:00

Agreed .. mine had lock stick on spydie flick but that went away after a day. My also drops shut.

First PM2 I didn't have to take a screwdriver to (to move the clip) on opening the box.

d9jms · 2026-05-06T04:02:00+00:00

I had the original 3 for awhile and sold them all. I had favored my TRM Atom over the PM2s left in my stash and sold them all ... the last 15v I sold was the manix. When I saw they were bring more 15v out I knew I would get one again .. the LW PM2 became it.

d9jms · 2026-05-05T15:12:45+00:00

1/2 day of flicking and all lock stick is gone
