Hi Ed.?? Yes, it will show up on the M's front panel.

What kind of logging software do you use?

I have a short memory retention time and needed aid to show me the Name and Call Sign of the ham I was having a QSO with.

Last night, Dave explained that we can receive the UDP broadcasts from our various Ham apps and use the results in Node-Red.? In this case, I am taking the UDP broadcast from MacLoggerDX' "Lookup", parsing out the contact's Name and Call sign.? I then wrote functions to build the command to display the "Name>Call Sign" as a spot on the panadapter.

So...When I use my logging software to look up the info on QRZ.com of the other ham, his/her name will be shown on my panadapter on the TX frequency, until I look up a new call or when I trigger the "remove all spots" function.

Mine is set up for MacLogger DX.? You will need your own connector to extract Name and Call from other popular Logging Applications.? I am sure Dave and/I could help/write the adapters....just ask.

Here is a screenshot of my Maestro's Panadapter.

Description:
Node-Red Flow to "Spot" the Call Sign and Name of the Ham you lookup via QRZ.com via your favorite logging app. I have it set up to work with MacLoggerDX. Most logger programs will UDP broadcast the QSO info when you do a QRZ.com lookup and can be adapted to my flow. I am sure Dave or I can help others build the needed connectors....just ask.

Hi all,

Thank you to the members that attended last night¡¯s Zoom meeting on getting started with Node Red for ham radio.?

The video is now up on my YouTube channel. I did not edit the video so you will be able to see and hear everything from the presentation.?

Re: Getting started with Node Red

 

Alan, Dave ... thanks for the Zoom meeting last night. I appreciate your taking the time to host that.?
I have a very extensive? multi-state remote radio system in place and have been remoting since the 1990's. As automated as I am, I often have to bring up multiple systems. There is an appealing elegance to the Node Red dashboards I'd seen.? I was attracted to Node-Red for the control simplicity it offered.

I had a steep learning curve over the past few days to get where I am on Node-Red. I have done a lot of work with Arduino and C++, but I've never played with an OS, the RPi or JavaScript. In future lessons, you might help others along by realizing that there are really 4 steps to mastering this for someone like me (an RF engineer):

1. Learn how to run the Rasberry Pi itself. How to interface to a terminal, etc.?
2. How to load and run the OS.?
3. Learn how to load simple flows in Node-Red using GPIO interfaces.?
4. Learn programming in JavaScript and building the dashboard.

Most Node-Red "beginner" tutorials assume you already know steps 1,2, and 4. That was not the case for me. I felt there was a lack of mid-level tutorials out there. For example, I could find little about how to build and arrange a dashboard. Your meeting last night filled that gap and got me heading in the right direction.?

That said, sometimes the only way to drink from a fire hose is to start drinking.

Thanks for making yourselves available to true beginners and for your patience.?

I'm a complete newbie to Node Red, so please bear with me...

I am currently running Node Red on Windows 10. It appears to be working.

I have imported WO2X's AG 2x8 flow. Why this one ? Because I have previously implemented the N1MM-to-AG functionality using VB.Net, so I have an idea on how the Node Red flow ought to work. I changed the port numbers and IP addresses to match my configuration. I deploy the flow, and it does something as I change bands (but not correctly switching the AG). The simple thing I don't know how to do is display this flow's UI so I might be able to see what is going on.

I am going to cover what the next steps are after loading the Raspberry Pi with an operating system, Node Red, and FRStack. This will include:

- how to load additional nodes
- loading flows
- accessing dashboard
- customizing the dashboard

This is limited to 100 members but I will be recording the presentation for members to be able to watch at a later date.
