• /Spot Call and Name.json

By: Alan Blind, WA9WUD

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 Ed

Let me know where the recording of it will be posted. I was having some servere ?neuropathic pain and had to leave early. I’d also like to apologize for not being ?muted when I entered. I’m still learning ?how to use my iPad. I had no idea how to mute it. I know now how it is done.

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.?

Thanks for freely sharing your time and expertise.? I will be joining the Zoom call to learn more.

Thanks ! This is starting to make sense.

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.

Thanks,
Steve, N2IC

Dave, I’m interested in your presentation. The Pi4 is up and running, I’ve been following the group with high interest and clearing my schedule to dive in. Let me know about the creds to join the Zoom this evening.?

Excellent, I plan to attend

I know it is late for you so I will be recording the presentation and get it uploaded to YouTube.

I can upload it in my Youtube Channel too afterwards.

+1 from me please!
I'd really like to see some basic integration with a Flex from scratch.
I'm a total noob when it comes to programming so haven't got a clue how to interrogate the Flex with Node Red, though I do have it installed on a Pi4 8Gb and managed to get it to boot and shut down using Alexa via a relay board to the rear Rem On port

Cheers,

Hi all,

?I am going to host a 1 hour Zoom meeting tomorrow night, Wednesday January 27th at 8 p.m. Eastern U.S.?

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:

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

Thanks. Very helpful. I have graduated to 4th grade arithmetic and can now multiply numbers (LOL)!?
I'll move my future questions to a different thread

Success!

And success using the USB cable!

The secret sauce was making sure that the "SPEComPort" setting had the complete device path! I don't know why that was so difficult, but thanks for everyone who helped.

Now it's time to see if I can get fancy!
