At least I like it :-)

your qr pic looks like hitler

This video is not yet published. So you saw it very early...

A similar idea is also used by ham operators (WSPR)

Jetzt fehlen nur noch die english Kenntnisse damit der Rest der Zuschauer das auch lesen kann :)

Das freut mich sehr. Danke!

Thank you!

Diese Videos werden in einer sehr sicheren, gepolsterten Zelle veröffentlicht.

Vielen Dank für die netten Worte! Das is motivierend.

Glad it was helpful!

You are welcome!

Thank you!

Thank you!

You see where I come from ;-)

You are welcome!

Hope they arrived in the meantime.

So something to improve. I like that!

Cheaper than many "gadget" channels ;-)

Thank you!

Hi there, you can find more info on using the integrations to commonly used dashboard here - www.thethingsnetwork.org/docs/applications/ and an extensive list of topics on the Forum - www.thethingsnetwork.org/forum/.

Both will do. Depends only on your preference.

Only with at least one hill ;-)

I also did not learn everything in one day ;-)

Yes, black is difficult to work with.

Thank you for the comment about the new background.

There is a whole sub-culture of 'nurdiness' behind this video. You are well advised to stay away (it's a dark, dark pit) :)

There are a few other LoRa videos on this channel. Most of them more useful than this one ;-)

Because their parents never paid any attention to them. You could post a video of a child playing with a puppy and some miserable bloke will down vote it....sad.

Me too ;-)

@@AndreasSpiess - Your wife because she wants you to stop making videos and mow the lawn?? 8-)

Maybe. Never thought about that!

Your choice. This device is not mobile and I would not place it where it is easily heard by a nearby gateway. So you do not disturb anybody.

There is a link in the description to the module I used.

Then take the test. It's easier than taking the written drivers license test. Don't need to know morse code anymore for the technician level.

@@strange0eye You miss my point. I mean to say, that one of these very similar communities could reach out to the other in some nice gesture, what that gesture might be, and why it would be the beginning of a quality friendship. Saying "go do the test then" is arrogant and unwelcoming, and self-evident of most hams, sadly.

@@SteveWrightNZ -- Sorry you have a bad taste in your mouth. I've had nothing but good interactions between both sides. Of course, most of that has been face to face interactions. What about you? If you are judging by internet interactions well that answers your question and explains why you missed MY point and injected some negative connotation to my comment. Find a local Ham club and go talk to them the old fashion way. Although, I've been licensed since the 80's, I still don't have much Ham equipment because it's expensive as hell. Also, there are a lot of non-licensed people abusing the Ham "space" similar to all the drone abusers ruin it for those that play by the rules.

@@strange0eye Nice try trying to convert my topic into your topic, but it won't work. Perhaps start off your own comment elsewhere?

@@SteveWrightNZ -- Well thanks for ending the conversation as you are obviously a snowflake, educated by the internet, sovereign citizen type who has this unfounded sense of entitlement that you should be able to do whatever you want. So, I will leave you with an analogy... Just because someone has their standard drivers license; does that mean that they should be allowed to drive a motorcycle, semi-truck and fly a Cessna 172 too!? If that doesn't make sense to you, sorry. What I do know is most of you internet commenters wouldn't say the same thing in a face to face scenario. This is a public comment forum... start my own!? Oh geez... please... I'll pay for your vasectomy... please don't procreate your genes any further. Buh Bye.

Vielleicht auch für andere Leute (ohne Lizenz). Ist ähnlich wie WSPR.

Sorry Tony, we only arrive here each Sunday for our fix of Swiss Accent, blasphemy and the very occasional extreme swear word. :) I say potata! No, I take that back we come here for FAR more and are rarely/never disappointed. Tune in! :)

Or how 'bout "Devil oper"

"lonosphere" and "Ionosphere," one of these speIlings of the word in question is wrong. This is a font issue: here is the all capitalization representation of each example given earlier "LONOSPHERE" and "IONOSPHERE." I looked into the articles that Andrea quoted (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_propagation#Tropospheric_modes) if we change the font type the issue disappears, but because the font type used has this anomaly, and Andrea is not as familiar with this topic this is not a big issue and ultimately can be ignored with respect to the subject matter of this video. This is not even the first time such a thing has happened, and probably will not be the last as long as this font type (Arial) is used as the standard for all modern UI. Even within this comment for fun I played around with some of the elements where two "L" (e.g. LL or ll) existed and ironically as it may be the only time this event occurred is in the spelling of spelling. Here is your only clue to figuring it out with the standard Arial font type without leaving the page or changing the font type: "Il" (i.e. in uppercase IL or lowercase il) you can notice that the uppercase "i" is slightly smaller than lowercase "L". If you happen to live in the United States, in the state of Illinois (i.e. IL) you will have definitely seen this issue pop up. Point some more out, and ask yourself this "How can we change or complain to modern UI builders for using visually appealing font type as the default standard type for all browser?" Here is a neat article I found on the uses of fonts typefaces: web.mit.edu/jmorzins/www/fonts.html Here is a settings page in the desktop Chrome browser application to change the font type (change the Sans-Serif font type to something more legible use the Wikipedia page as the test subject): chrome://settings/fonts en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sans-serif Take note of the subject of the page and enjoy. Have fun. Sincerely, Samuel Kauffman

Where is the problem?

in video 8:20 lat:-5.25...; lon=74.58...;alt -20923;; is wrong ( You did not send such coordinates.) alt -20923 ?!! because AppSKey is wrong - instead of lsb, it should be msb.

Thank you.

I read about it, but so far I did not need an alternative.

I have to have a look at it. Thanks for the tip! If you contact me, We can have a chat about it.

:-)

The ESP32 framework changed some commands for deep-sleep. Maybe you check with the example file for deep-sleep and adjust the sketch.

@@AndreasSpiess my fault. I must to choose board type before compiling.

Maybe you place the device where it normally is not heard by a nearby gateway or only by one which is not used a lot? Then, TTN does not care too much, I think. We are anyway only interested in long distances.

:-)

The video was pre-produced and the repo set to private. Now it should work.

Good idea! Will solve many problems;-)

See my LoRa world record video

lmfao

Their balloon keeps hitting the space ceiling

Yves Haberthür because their balloons are flat, too.

I suggest you to google "TTN tracker" for that purpose (UKposts deletes all links). It is made for that.

@@AndreasSpiess Thank you I did play around with TTH tracker did the GPS reset stuff and tried ABB and OTAA but no success. The ID Device is with eui-**** I did put the part without the "eui" and it id compile but no live message. I did not know about the links beeing deleted. Thank you I won´t share any links from now on.

I use the kizniche/ttgo-tbeam-ttn-tracker and so far had no problems

@@AndreasSpiess yes exactly I was talikng about that. I also asked in a ticket where can I find the files that have to be edited at point 3 "arduino-lmic/project_config/lmic_project_config.h" it is just me the issue since this is the first time I want to connect to the TTN network

If I remember right the file is in the libraries folder

Vielleicht schaust du dir meine ändern Videos über LoRa an? (Reichweitentests etc.)

@@AndreasSpiess Alles klar, habs verstanden. LoraWan für ein IoT Netzwerk. Paket Radio nannte sich das früher im CB Funk.

Thank you. I am now back from my trip :-)

Maybe it will be covered in the energy harvesting video.

Maybe you watch my other LoRa videos?

Unfortunately, I cannot do remote debugging. But my file has only a parenthesis on line 85. You should find the config.h in the library directory of the LMIC library.

I hope a few other viewers will build one and we will see how it works.

Unfortunately, I do not know Minecraft :-(

@@AndreasSpiess Danke for the awnser anyways!

TTN should do that, I think.

???

Would need quite a big antenna ;-)

The local mobile telephone provider KPN steps in lora. Mostly for the business applications.

Gustav Aardema That’s very interesting. I did not know that. I will have to look in to that!

Because of pycom

My theory is that due to the socio-economic situation the budget available for hobbies is larger than elsewhere and places a Lora gateway within reach for the average hobbyist. You can see the same in Switzerland with a similar economic climate.

Yeah, I'd expand that to say a good chunk of Europe (maybe just eastern Europe -- the map seems to be down right now). I'm in the US, and according to the map (ttnmapper.org/), the coverage here is abysmal. I don't know why -- I would have expected that the Maker/ham/experimenter community here would be all over this. *sniff*

Where do I find the info?

@@AndreasSpiess Maybe follow or DM @JohnCassidyGB or myself on Twitter. 22nd Sept 2019 is the date, anniversary of Marconi's transmit to Australia

Yes!

That was the reason for the title. Useless, but maybe people can learn something ;-)

Thank you!

There are a lot of reports like this BUT be positive - you have made a connection! (The joy when that little green spot appears). Without building a second transmitter / receiver pair - using different kit - it's difficult to work out what is going on. The problem is normally the treatment of the RF signal - which is not like just connecting a battery. If you can't confirm that your aerials are designed for the correct frequency (as some from China are not) then use short lengths of wire (cut to the correct frequency 868/915 etc etc) soldered directly to the board and gain as much height to get line-of-sight as possible. Ensure both wires are vertical and good luck.

Why not?

Because msb works better.

There is an introduction to LoRa / LoRaWAN from Andreas, too!

Thank you!

I liked the idea. And a similar concept is used for amateur radio (WSPR)
