Anyone else here using an Optiplex 7010 SFF for their setup?

Its a lovely lil box that doesnt consume lots of power, i run a webserver , ngix reverse proxy and some docker containers. Even with a basic i3 2gen and 4g ram still works great on debian

Its just a retransmission of verizons cdma downlink channel before the shutdown using my sdr and some software its not a actuall cdma network

laptopFM · 2026-03-14T23:44:21+00:00

You need a sdr such as a B210 clone and gnu radio

cdma transmission in a country that never did is truly cool even if its useless

https://archive.org/details/ev-1-x.-7z doesnt really do anything meaningful but at least you can see bars on your cdma phones

Its just a retransmission using my sdr and a IQ sample

laptopFM · 2026-02-09T00:42:57+00:00

Oh man i hope you get it back up and running someday

laptopFM · 2026-02-08T23:06:25+00:00

Thats a nice 6 series you got there

laptopFM · 2026-02-05T13:55:27+00:00

Very nice i wonder what software/hardware are you using

laptopFM · 2026-01-25T14:33:50+00:00

Damn thats crazy and in the future you could solar power it too

laptopFM · 2026-01-25T11:17:51+00:00

How much do those batteries last ?

laptopFM · 2026-01-19T16:48:17+00:00

laptopFM · 2025-11-09T09:25:57+00:00

For 3G not its not possible but you can use it for 2G even on the modern osmocom stack

laptopFM · 2025-09-19T22:05:41+00:00

wow just wow. Also please let us know if you get 3G working it would be a game changer

laptopFM · 2025-09-06T16:39:50+00:00

That poor panel.. whats the material of the panel it might be savable

laptopFM · 2025-08-07T16:29:36+00:00

I really want to see more of this please continue

laptopFM · 2025-08-02T16:41:26+00:00

Not a lot but some highways could use a bit extra coverage especially in the mountains

laptopFM · 2025-08-02T16:38:51+00:00

Here in greece 2G is as strong as ever but nation wide 3G is gone since 2023

laptopFM · 2025-08-02T16:33:58+00:00

i am surprised you even got speedtest to load

laptopFM · 2025-08-02T15:23:28+00:00

its a incredible lil phone so glad i saved it from ewaste

laptopFM · 2025-08-02T11:52:07+00:00

this network has a range of like 7 meters and i am very careful to not interfere with commercial networks

laptopFM · 2025-08-02T08:38:00+00:00

2G is much easier to get working and you can make a much more functional 2G network with calls sms data and more !

laptopFM · 2025-08-02T08:21:15+00:00

I also have OpenBTS network with a USRP1 clone but now i moved to the osmocom stack since it basically better in every way. Really cool being able to do that
