DE : RTTY – radioteletype (very old school wireless networking) Yesterday I was watching a news documentary about the BNetzA (German Communications Ministry) at work with a Peilwagen (radio tracking vehicle) searching out stray signals that caused havoc with vehicle alarm/lock systems and TV-sets for some kilometres around and even got into the communications systems of the aircraft.
it turned out that the middle aged couples complaining about the interference had accidentally caused it themselves by defects in cheap gadgets like weather stations and animal scares (the signal had also cut across the DWD's far more accurate weather stations).
if anyone wants I can share the link (10 minutes entirely in German). I only just understood it myself. In one bit the BNetzA chap got an urgent call from Bremen aerodrome because of "Störung durch Pfeifton" on aviation frequencies. A Pfeifton (as its name suggests) is a high pitched sound that may or may not be wanted (it can mean the ringtone on a mobile (Handy)). it is definitely unwanted on those frequencies. Not just Angst but Gefahr; DE has had plenty enough trouble with aircraft recently.
The facial expressions of the BNetzA chap and the way he said Pfeifton made it clear whatever was causing it would be made to pipe down - at ARCEP in France he might be equally likely to pipe his eye ;) )
Also: bald muß die BNetzA mit dem Peilwagen für den Pfeifton suchen.
I might even have got at least half of the cases and genders right in the above [in German the govt and police agencies are always feminine] ;) - although in the film the BNetzA agents actually did have some hair....
but there are times when the Pfeifton is desirable:

you can hear and see it on the spectrum display (it is the two brighter yellow lines). The Pfeifton is part of the Signal, but the rest of the yellow is Rausch (noise, but can also mean the effect of booze or drugs!).
"cq cq cq de ddh47 ddh9 ddh8" means that everyone who can receive the signal is permitted to monitor it - BNetZA have licensed the Deutscher Wetterdienst to transmit it, Ofcom, Agentschap Telecom, ARCEP etc allow you to monitor it because we are in the EU (it wasn't always the case!).
DDH47/DDH9/DDH8 are the callsigns to identify the transmitter (required by international law).
more info about it (in German) https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/DDH47
if you look at the wave display you can see why they also send "ryryryryryryryryryryryryryryry".
even with a 20 000W TX there is a lot of interference on LF (worse on HF) - because of the type of signal used (an upper sideband) you also need a radio receiver which can generate the Pfeifton using a special circuit.
The signal I am decoding is at 147.3 KHz so why is the radio tuned to a different frequency? 147.3 - 146.01 Khz = 1.29 Khz - just right to make an audio signal strong enough to get above the noise.
if the sound is familiar from those documentaries about Bletchley Park; that is because its exactly the same signal! Today its used for more peaceful purposes - eventually you get messages like this
and the stuff which looks like "secret codes" if decoded on a Linux machine (doesn't work on Windows even with the same software) is actually just the weather; except from ships at sea or weather monitoring stations.
this weather boat is funded by the EU and operated by (I think) the French Navy - BATEU00 = bateau (fr) ;)
by now you probably are wondering - why go to all this trouble in the 21st century when you can get the weather info online?
one reason is much of the online stuff for Europe is the exact same data but processed via private companies in USA who know little about Europe's geography and introduce flaws into the data, the BBC and Met Office computer links regularly go wrong.
Doing this also unearths any particularly bad intereference from gadgets in your building or if the Russians are doing anything sketchy - the small weather boat (which often does some surveillance work as well) is sent elsewhere or told to switch off its radio transmitters unless its an emergency); a lack of weather reports from any European country which isn't obviously too skint to keep their weather service working also means something unusual is going on. There is always Weather in Europe.
particularly rough weather means even the Russians stop with all of this (they do actually warn us of any particularly harsh weather, usually via Norway). Germans and Dutch call that "Unweather" (weather that is so bad it is dangerous). This whole setup doesn't even need the Internet; as long as there is some electricity to keep the radio receiver and relatively old netbook going it will operate and this can be done with equipment older than I am...
LDV LUTON campervan/possible rig van for sale ldv convoy luton van for sale:
2.5 litre turbo deisel
only 64,500 miles on the clock
3.5 ton (so can drive on any license)
power steering
currently converted to a live-in vehicle, back shutter opens up to a porch area, then a seperating wall with stable doors and large window.
inside, has bed above the cab, comfy sofa which opens to a double bed, and kitchen unit with oven, hob and sink (oven just needs connecting to a gas bottle and sink isnt yet connected to a water tank but ive got an electric pump to fit with it)
walls are all professionally insulated and panelled, and 12v spot lights are fitted connected to a leisure battery and solar panel on the roof. floor is wood lamenate.
the front wall however could be removed and everything inside easily taken out to make a reliable rig van. has been used as a rig van a few times, even with the wall as the stable door is really large.
the engine runs really well and ive been really pleased with the fuel efficiency. at the moment one of the fuel pipes has split so having that replaced in the next week or two. its mot is due next month, but i am happy to put the van through the mot myself before selling. i think there is about 4/5 months left on the tax.
have been happily living in this for the last year, but selling due to wanting to upgrade to something a bit larger. but this is wicked van for being on the move, festivals and parties
will get pictures up soon as possible
UK : This years (Summer 2015) GCSE maths exam To be fair you would need to be in top set to answer either of the two questions and predicted for A / A* as the exam board says - they are about the same level as a 1987 O Level exam which I did sit (back in 1987).
Were I to sit the same exam today I might have got a few marks for the sweets question (but not all the available marks) - and I have totally forgotten how to do simultaneous equations). I probably wouldn't get A or A* for the maths exam; and have never believed the right wing press claims that these exams are "dumbed down"; exams are equally difficult and stressful to a young person as they were nearly 3 decades ago. If any students (or parents) happen to be reading this; it is not the end of the world if you do not get A* in this years GCSE.
It is worth learning at least some skills with basic arithmetic; but there are further education colleges where you can retake the exams. I work for a medium size company here and we don't care when our younger staff got their basic qualifications (whether its 15, 16 or age 20) or for that matter what country they got them in (provided they can speak English). People live to 80-100 anyway so there is no need to try and cram every bit of growing up into below age 25; those who do only end up feeling middle aged by then.

Beware! Backfeed voltage on cheap UPS units Last Friday I did a UPS test at work (there are 5 small units at one site in various places; as its an old building this makes more sense than having one big one as there is no place to put it). The site is a healthcare facility for frail old people and is in a rural area and its HV/LV trafo (11 000 V / 230/400V ) is shared with a quarter of the village.
Added to which the supply is TN-C-S (neutral and protective earth are combined at the UK Power Networks service head), with 3-phase to the laundry and kitchen where there are heavy appliances that have strong power demands.
All the IT kit is the other side of the building on a single phase. Power quality is not good here - we are lucky to get 230V; at times of high demand the voltage is only just within the UK tolerances (216.2V minimum).
Any imbalance on the other two phases causes the power to sag to the point the UPS alarms go off (which is why they are there). Interference from the neutral (which can happen for many reasons) also contaminates the protective earth when used as a functional earth by IT/telecoms equipment (which it always is in Europe); it was enough to crash the network on some computers and cause issues with USB devices (the metal shield of UPS connector on a desktop always gets connected to protective earth)
One UPS a cheap China model which is only there to keep the wireless router going for about 50 minutes (so it and the telephone exchange the other side should keep going long enough for the staff to warn any senior management the place is off supply).
Unusually its mains lead is fixed rather than on an IEC socket - the other end is a UK plug. It is under a desk in a confined space When I unplugged it; I accidentally brushed my hand against the two exposed pins; and got a strong shock from that! Thankfully it was only around 115V and not much current (or I would have spent the weekend in the hospital or not be here at all).
I did some research into this and learned it is called "backfeed voltage" and arises due to flaws in the UPS design.
The obvious solution is to fit a relay in the UPS operated by the DC from the accus which disconnects the mains inlet (this is the "click" noise a UPS often makes when switching over) but this component is either defective or absent in this particular unit. (FFS these relays aren't even that expensive!)
Kit like this (which might just be tolerable in 100/115V countries) is not supposed to be sold 230V countries but some must slip through.
So be careful if buying a lower cost UPS......
How to get rid of Morning Wood. One Morning last week when I woke up I felt an urgent need to relieve my bladder, Unfortunately I had a mega boner or 'Morning Wood' It pretty much makes it impossible for me to urinate (well i could just piss all over the walls and my face if i try) - I don't want that at all.. So i ended up scanning the internet for some help. This is what i discovered:
Urban Dictionary give me some information on how 'Morning wood' happens- A morning erection that is naturally caused as the brains enters the REM-deep sleep phase. At this stage, the body's skeletal muscle structure relaxes and causes hypervasodilation in the capillaries of the body, resulting in said erection.
I guess this gotta be true right?
I then came across a way on how to get rid of my raging boner in 30 seconds. Here's what to do - By flexing the muscles in both your thighs for 30 seconds or a little more ( depending on how big your dick is) - Joking it doesn't matter the size erection is at all!. Anyway this worked for me. I was over the moon.
I tried this a few times, on different occasions and can confirm it works. Now when i wake up with a raging hard-on i just flex the thighs and BOOM! Boner buried, I can piss my heart out.
How do you set the vibe? What I mean by vibe is literally tone.
For instance at dnb concerts I'll sometimes yell
"OH SHIT, OH SHIIIIIT"
or i'll whisper to my bro "the overlord has arrived *bobs to beat while staring straight at person*"
Other times I'll get pissed at the Dj for going off kilter and act out to show my distaste, why do i do that? Well its hard to explain; I understand this an extremely subjective experience but most of the time I'm sober for these moments of realization. But frankly, here in London, I feel like a few Djs are sinister. Not sinister by heart but by nature. The energy that is created within the synergy between mammals is uniquely metaphysical in nature. Its unquantifiable because its not something that's to be measurably felt but to be felt measurably. Some Djs here siphon energy instead of channeling with it, they choose to separate themselves from us...
.
. I don't know.... Forgive me but I'm not trying to sound delirious but... does creating music synthetically change or manipulate natures senses? And how do you charge the crowd..?
Thank you for reading :big-joint:
hello party ppl :D Hi all, place seems awesome so I've joined, hope to have some fun convos - I used to do all drugs just smoke now, like to dj, like to flirt . First I line community for me, hope you'll have me!
