Remote Lab South, Encoder progress, Decoder status, Scheduler work, and several other updates. Music by FirmWarez.
B
All
right,
as
ever
as
michelle
mentioned
earlier,
I'm
james
kiel,
juliet
7
kilo
delta
echo,
I'm
the
technician
for
ori
at
remote,
lab
south
situated
here
in
arkansas,
and
as
michelle
mentioned,
we
are
working
on
getting
a
proper
lab
space
set
up
in
a
barn
that
we
have
on
some
of
the
property
here
that
was
previously
being
used
as
office
space.
So
there's
so
there's
a
number
of
things
already
in
place
for
some
of
the
lab
things
we
want
to
do.
A
Yeah,
it
makes
sense
being
familiar
with
the
property
and
the
the
resource.
I
think
that
this
will
this
will
work,
and
so
what
we
have
been
talking
about
doing
is
is
building
a
separate
shop
on
the
property
and
also
building
the
separately
building
some
interferometry
dishes
and
and
some
infrastructure
for
that
as
well.
B
C
C
C
A
C
A
C
A
A
Okay,
all
right
I'll
see
what
I
can
do,
we're
all
facing
the
same
thing
out
there,
but
but
there's
there's
some
folks.
I
can
ask
and
I'll
I'll
see
what
I
can
do
to
try
to
get
this
to
where
we
can
maybe
show
it
off
in
august
to
to.
I
think
the
crowd
would
really
appreciate
it
at
defcon.
It's
the
right
match,
yeah.
C
C
A
Cool
okay,
thanks
I'll
see
what
I
can
do
and
yeah
okay
and
I'd
like
to
to
oh
you're,
very
welcome
I'd
like
to
introduce
ken
easton,
an
asic,
an
fpga
designer
who
will
be
helping
with
whatever
we
need
to
do.
Next,
we
were
going
to
start
work
on
the
decoder
since
we're
rel
we're
pretty
happy
with
the
the
encoder,
because
it
passed
an
awful
lot
of
tests
and
has
been
looked
at
pretty
well,
so
we'll
we'll
see.
A
That
will,
of
course
continue
and
we'll
continue
to
improve
it,
but
since
the
encoder
is
in
decent
shape,
we
started
looking
at
the
decoder.
It
looks
like
that.
We're
actually
that
that
ken's
going
to
look
at
the
scheduler
first,
and
that
is
probably
something
that's
going
to
be
done
in
firmware
or
software.
A
That
will
be
the
thing
that
manages
which
baseband
frames
get
put
onto
the
encoder
in
what
order
with
what
priority,
and
so
a
scheduler
can
be
very
simple.
It
can
be
a
fifo
or
it
can
be
a
little
more
complicated
and
that's
where
we're
kind
of
going,
since
we
have
quality
of
service
goals
and
since
we
have
adaptive
coding
and
modulation,
just
makes
kind
of
sense
to
have
a
more
capable
scheduler.
A
So
so
he's
here,
and
thank
you
very
much
for
coming
ken
yeah
thanks.
So
much
we'll
we'll
publish
a
lot
more
on
that
and
everyone's
welcome
to
to
pitch
in
there,
and
the
reason
why
we
kind
of
skipped
over
the
decoder
is
that
there's
really
good
news
about
the
decoder
from
amit
anon.
So
he
wrote
a
decoder
for
dbbs2
and
I
think
it
might
go
to
s2x.
But
I'd
have
to
double
check.
A
But
there's
been
interest
in
this
from
from
an
external
organization
and
they're
collaborating
with
us
to
make
it
to
bring
it
up
to
snuff.
So
it's
not
quite
at
the
point
where
I
guess
it
should
be.
The
external
organization
was
having
a
little
bit
of
trouble,
figuring
it
out
and,
and
they
reached
out
and
asked
for
help,
and
so
there's
going
to
be
a
productive,
open
source
collaboration
that
will
result
in
a
good
decoder.
A
So
we're
very
happy
about
this.
It
puts
us
much
further
than
we
thought
this
decoder
for
dbb,
s2
or
s2x
would
be
something
that
the
downlink
receiver
or
the
ground
station
receiver
would
would
get,
but
in
terms
of
the
transponder,
since
we
have
the
encoder
on
the
downlink
and
we've
been
working
hard
on
uplink
definition
and
getting
at
least
a
general
purpose,
computing
implementation
going.
The
next
step
is
to
then
go
to
what
what
in
vhdl
do
we
need
to
do
for
the
transponder
to
receive
the
uplink.
A
Let's
see
the
immediate
trouble,
entrel
has
written
a
great
repository
that
lets
you
pull
in
the
dvb
fpga
encoder
okay,
so
this
is
on
the
the
downlink
side
from
the
transponder
and
also
the
analog
device's
entire
reference
design
for
for
the
zc706,
where
the
9371
board
is
located
and
onshore
can
get
it
to
make
and
build,
and
I
can't
and
we're
still
trying
to
figure
out
why
we
have
seen
evolutions
in
in
the
hdl
from
analog
devices.
The
reference
design
has
been
revved
up
to
to
where
it
can
run
under
vivado
2021.
A
A
A
A
So
our
goal
is
as
soon
as
we
figure
out
figure.
This
out
that
we
explain
it
thoroughly
and
make
it
really
as
possible
as
we
as
we
can
for
for
other
people
to
use
this
stuff,
because
it's
it
gives
you
great
superpowers
to
be
able
to
do
this,
but
leonard
was
super
helpful
and
I
think
that
you
know
with
a
little
bit
of
encouragement
and
confidence,
we
can
figure
out
how
to
properly
feed
everything
and
get
a
get
the
processor
signed
in
shape
and
there's
also
other
another
good
set
of
news
for
the
processor
side.
A
It's
very
good,
we're
very
happy
that
this
everything
works
and
and
that's
great,
but
he
he
has
not
yet
published
the
processor
side
stuff,
but
he
will
so
he
said
yes,
I
know
I'm
I'm
I'm
holding
you
know
holding
this
for
now,
but
like
it
will
all
get
published
as
soon
as
he
has
time.
So
that's
kind
of
the
anchor
point
for
for
moving
up
to
the
larger
chip
on
the
on
the
zc706
is
like.
A
If
it
works
on
the
pluto
and
we
can
see
a
reference
design
on
the
pluto
with
how
everything
works
over
the
air,
then
I
think
it'll
help
out
kind
of
a
lot,
because
everest
has
a
lot
of
experience
here.
So
it's
just
been
a
question
of
his
time
has
been
very
limited
and
he
knows
that
that
we
need
the
the
processor
side
published
and
and
he's
he.
He
has
spent
his
free
time
making
sure
that
the
work
is
represented
at
friedrichshafen
and
I'm
totally.
Okay
with
that.
A
Yes,
yes,
yeah
he's!
Yes,
absolutely
he's!
If
you
I
mean
you've,
probably
seen
him
on
slack
and
I'll
I'll,
make
sure
that
that
he
knows
that
you're
trying
to
do
the
exact
same
thing
and
experiencing
the
same
issues
here,
he's
he's
all
in
and
very
very
interested
in
us
succeeding
and
wants
to
contribute,
so
it
uses
yeah
I've
looked
at
his.
I
really
appreciate
the
the
contribution
that
he's
made
for
the
rf
model,
so
the
python
rf
model
is
excellent.
A
It's
it's
exactly
what
you
need
in
order
to
compare
all
the
stuff,
so
I'm
totally
happy
to
to
have
it
and
to
and
to
get
to
find
another
person
that
thinks
like
we
do
so
yeah,
but
yeah
I'll
make
sure
that
that
he
knows
that
you're
also
dealing
with
the
same
stuff.
When
we
gave
the
lab
tour.
We
we
pointed
at
the
zc706
and
the
adr
937
and
onshore
has
the
same
thing
doing
trying
to
do
the
same
stuff.
So
so
he's
he's
aware.
C
A
C
A
We
will
yeah
as
soon
as
is
there.
What
we'll
do
is
we'll
just
publish
everything
as
we
go
and
it'll
all
be
all
it'll
all
be
laid
out,
even
if
it
doesn't
work
or
if
it's
done
so
we'll
yeah
we'll
do
our
usual
thing
so
yeah
welcome.
Welcome
aboard
it'll
be
it'll,
be
fun.
This
is
oftentimes.
This
is
really
the
heart
of
any
of
any
communication
system.
A
C
A
Yeah-
and
anybody
with
any
experience
here
is-
is
deeply
appreciated.
My
experience
with
schedulers
is
a
little
bit
and
I
know
I
know
quite
a
bit
about
like
the
guinea
radio
scheduler.
You
know
so
really
kind
of
focused
on
that
and
it's
it's
a
very.
It
is
a
very
focused
system,
but
I
learned
a
lot
looking
at
it,
the
runtime
scheduler.
So
so
I
have
an
appreciation
and
a
fear
so-
and
you
know
some
some
ideas
and
and
yeah,
but
but
between.
B
A
D
As
noted,
we
had
an
actual
person
come
and
tour
the
facility,
which
is
very
exciting
as
a
side
effect
of
that
having
leonard
here
in
the
house
and
trying
to
work
on
novato.
We
realized
that
working
on
a
small
screen
is
kind
of
painful
and
it'd
be
nice
to
be
able
to
have
a
bottle
full
screen,
and
I
figured
how
to
do
that
in
case.
D
So
I
can
now
fill
a
4k
monitor
with
a
virtual
machine
using
vnc
and
that
works
much
nicer
environment
if
you
have
something
like
vivato
with
a
million
user
interface
components
other
than
that
nothing
going
on
new
in
the
remote
lab,
I
rebooted
a
couple
of
the
vms
software
updates
and
so
forth.
I
hope
that
didn't
cause
any
disruption
and
carrying
on.
A
Yeah,
thank
you
for
those
of
us
with
maybe
compromised
eyesight.
The
additional
pixels
are
deeply
appreciated.
So
so,
if
anybody
else
has
this
particular
challenge,
then
we
have
a
solution.
Thank
you,
cool.
Okay.
Next
week,
we'll
meet
again
and
yeah,
we'll
we'll
be
doing
lots
of
stuff
for
the
for
the
august
demo
this
week
and
looking
forward
to
giving
some
some
good
reports
for
our
friday
a
regular
friday
report,
which
is
in
the
it's
in
the
repo
and
goes
out
to
the
mailing
list.
