Aloha,
Welcome to the Maui WebSDR and WSPRdaemon system, now with more geckos!
The MauiSDR is currently starved for power and does not typically stay online for a full 24 hours. We are still looking for a new location.
Welcome to the Maui WebSDR and WSPRdaemon system, now with more geckos!
We have now deployed the stripped down hardware at a new location! Please read below for updates.
In the future please navigate here first (www.mauisdr.com)
Please keep in mind we were originally looking to a future with NO Maui SDR, so the current system is better than nothing problems and all.

If you have an accessible site on this side of the island with commercial power and a good internet connection with no nearby transmitters, we would love to hear from you.
The new MauiSDR consists of a tiny AMD Ryzen based server connected to a wideband USB3 based ADC. Unfortunately is has become apparent that the solar powered site is insufficient to keep the hardware up reliably. As such it is prone to outages during local night until the solar generation catches up. This also means the linux system is rebooted almost daily and is at great risk of corruption. We will remotely do what is reasonable to keep the site up, but long term we are still looking for other candidates in Hawaii to deploy this hardware. A location is needed away from any potential noise makers (e.g. micro-inverter or optimizers on solar arrays)
