VaraFM / BPQ32 STUFF:
Well this weekend I thought I would bring up varaFM on a raspberry pi... after all my PI4 2Gig loaded up wine/varaFM ok but runs out of memory fast. so goal was RPi4 4Gig running packet 1200 and varaFM. Hardware: Mobilink TNC3 bluetooth self contained that I can drive with my Phone even. Master Communincations DRA70 have to use the 70 as 36 doesn't frame VOX right RPi4 4Gig Logictech K400 only because RPi OS 5.10.x starts hdmi/keyboard no headless Glonass USB GPS Because this is an EMAIL server you need a Fully Qualify Domain Name. grab one from NOIP.COM (allows 3 free before you need to pay for account or domain.com, launchpad.com, godaddy.com, whois.com... where ever cheap. Download my BPQ32todo.txt file to follow how I put the software togethere.

Click here for a picture of the desktop with the conky on the right side.
click here to download the conky script that sits on most of my PI's and Linux boxes. Click here for another picture of the desktop with the conky on the right side.

if you are seeing too much noise on your packets turn off samba and it network packets going out via the IPTABLES. one of my pi's tables can be downloaded by clicking here ...



Dont forget to update these lines in the WPA_Supplicant.conf file
(/etc/wpa_supplicant) on the Linux mobile boxes (pi's 3/4)
tls_disable_tlsv1_0=1
tls_disable_tlsv1_1=1
openssl_ciphers=DEFAULT@SECLEVEL=2
right after the country before the network section
it keeps your wifi from sending the password in the clear!

Field Day was fill with setting up smallest LINBPQ NTS Traffic passing system Click to see picture of the stuff I used
From the keyboard up was the stuff you use with pi zero w to see on your TV the the boot and settings but not needed in the field or car. You can see below the keyboard the pi zero W running (green led since the lid is off) and the battery running the pi/Moblelink tnc3 the other device you see is the cell tower wifi network when you don't just want radio only links.
then OS 5.10.11 came out and I couldn't get all the software loaded back on the Sd Cards.
