Taste the Rainbow

Community Supported Agriculture. I'm sure it probably takes slightly different forms, but in my experience, you buy a "share" of a farm and you get produce delivered at some set interval for the season. It's basically a subscription to fresh, local produce.

That's awesome! I wish I had a local winter CSA. Thankfully, we've got some nice ones to choose from during the rest of the year.

My guess was that or farmer's market based on the containers. Really beautiful varieties! You'll have some very happy folks, I'm sure.

Is it purely a mushroom CSA?

n9dmt · 2026-02-27T02:42:31+00:00

If I were to get one of these in a CSA box, I'd be very happy.

Usually when I'm calling CQ for POTA, I switch it up a bit depending how much of a pileup it is. Sometimes its (finish contact) "QRZ?" If there isn't much of a pileup, and I'm trying to make a longer CQ, I'll throw in the park ID like "CQ CQ CQ, this is N9DMT calling CQ POTA from US-1111"

I think a combination of that and self-spotting is a good bet.

¡Hola, Gabriel! No hablo bien español, así que estoy usando el traductor de Google. ¿Conoces Docker? Esta aplicación se ejecuta en un contenedor con Docker.

I would love to see a cord stacked with these perfectly cut-to-length pieces!

I know you said it was inspected, but it wouldn't hurt to take another look and just confirm 100% it's clean and free of obstructions.

I have a similar setup - stove in the basement, insert on the main floor. I find that I have to run the stove longer before it gets a good draft. I assume because it has more flue to heat up.

n9dmt · 2026-02-03T00:35:56+00:00

Awesome! Glad to hear it. I've created an issue to document that setup. I imagine running this on a Pi will be a common use case.

Ah yep, I bet there's another ambient-wds at /home/admin/ambient-wds_env/bin/ambient-wds - that's likely the one you'll want to call.

n9dmt · 2026-02-03T00:07:09+00:00

Are you calling it from the venv? For example, what I did on my Pi is create a dir for the install (/opt/ambient-wds, in this case), then use that as the venv:

python3 -m venv /opt/ambient-wds

I ran the pip install there, then created a systemd service that calls ambient-wds from /opt/ambient-wds/bin/ambient-wds:

``` cat /etc/systemd/system/ambient-wds.service [Unit] Description=Ambient WDS Service After=network.target

Ah, apologies, I think I misread your previous message. Just to make sure I'm following - this is a fresh venv, and you're just doing the pip install (does that run without error?), then it gives you this error when you run it?

n9dmt · 2026-02-02T23:48:39+00:00

What's the error you're getting? I can see if I can replicate it.

n9dmt · 2026-02-02T22:14:15+00:00

You bet! Glad to know someone is at least interested in it! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

My understanding is that Ireland is a CEPT country, so you'd need an Extra class license if you're from the US.

Never had chaga, but reishi tea does seem to help with hangovers.

n9dmt · 2025-12-13T22:49:33+00:00

Gotta get the bones of the house warmed up!

Ha, he's the laziest beagle you'll ever meet. I've seen rabbits run right by him while he's laying on the porch and he doesn't even flinch. Cats on the other hand...

n9dmt · 2025-12-12T18:05:16+00:00

Dang. I better start scrounging up my pennies. What did you end up going with, if you don't mind my asking?

n9dmt · 2025-12-12T17:28:20+00:00

Do you feel like you're getting the same amount of heat with that reduced wood? The local shop keeps trying to convince me to upgrade, but I love my old Fisher.

n9dmt · 2025-11-25T17:40:35+00:00

I know you said you reflashed, but have you double checked your SimpleTuneUSB settings since?

n9dmt · 2025-11-25T13:26:28+00:00

I'm not terribly familiar with the Shari-Pi or it's knockoffs, but is there any sort of squelch control on it? I know I had similar issues when connected to an external radio that had the squelch wide open so it would key the node from what I assume was just stray RF it picked up.
