      I made an Anderson Powerpole distribution block. The case is 3d printed.

      Let us know what you’ve been working on.

        1. Got my Allstar Node up and running (Well, online only right now with Apple and Android phones).
          Radio interface has shipped so hope to get that after the holiday.
          Was able to setup on a Raspberry Pi 400. with help from ChatGBT, we worked out some VPN stuff and specific ports to use to protect the network and still be able to work from home. CMMC Regulations are STRICT and tough to attain properly.
        2. Got my POCLink Radios in also. They work great!
        3. The Broadcastify is working again. APC UPS died while I was out of town earlier this week. Replaced it and hopefully it will continue to provide a free public service to those who are interested. Broadcastify really has updated their public listening interface. It is interesting.
        4. The Pi-Star Mini is down till we can figure out some MFA problems with the websites we use. We both have accounts on the different platforms but, it’s a lot to make notes.
        5. Oh, Data Hoarding was just deemed a national security risk. However, in teh field I work in 10 years is the minimum required. There is no Maximium. ha
