Much to my amazement, in early 2009 I was contacted about the code and my undergraduate senior project entitled “Design, Construction, and Implementation of a Radio Telescope to study Neutral Hydrogen.”

Control software for Radio Astronomy Supplies 1420 MHz hydrogen line spectrometer which I wrote as part of undergraduate computer science senior project.

While developing in Django, it is often useful to serve media/static files to ensure design templates are displayed correctly.

Recently I received an inquiry about some software I wrote for my undergraduate senior project.

Firefox can automatically export your bookmarks whenever the browser is closed by setting the following field: Open up the about:config page (i.e. type `about:config`` in the address bar) and set: browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML = true This will export…

One design principle I have read is to keep your navigation menu to a depth of two or less.

When I started doing web development professionally back in 2004 my first application of server-side includes was for navigation menus.

Getting Started If you have not worked with Django before, I strongly suggest you work through the tutorial tutorial in which you build a simple user poll application.

If you are writing a DLL and need to know the detailed information about your compiled library, check out Dependency Walker.

In 2008 I transitioned to Linux for almost all of my day-to-day activities.

This blog post was originally a comment on the V4L wiki for the AutumnWave Onair USB HDTV Creator; however, I wasn’t easily able to locate it last time I needed the information.

Although the slew of Linux commands in the following section might seem like they are a bit cumbersome, it is actually not that difficult to configure the MA521 to use ndiswrapper.

Basic Information The Helical antenna is a simple way of obtaining high-gain and a broad band of frequency characteristics.

We finally got out in the 98 F weather and started testing on our equipment.

I recently went ISP shopping and I have decided to aid my fellow citizens of Hastings.

Over the weekend we constructed a 24 dBi omni-directional antenna for 2.4 GHz wireless signals.

In order to establish long-distance links and provide WiFi to large areas, we are going to need some specialized antennas.

Introduction In Business, everything is location, location, location.

Using nothing more then a DWL-900AP, a 300 Watt power inverter and a old 120 MHz 5x86 Laptop we conducted a interference site survey for our long-distance networking link in Hastings, NE.

It is now our new objective to determine if there are any networks within the vicinity of or between Node 1 or Node 2 that might interfere with our long-distance (2 km) link.

There are three waves of data analysis for this step.

The first objective of Hastings Wireless will be to test the feasibility of long-distance 802.11b networks using consumer hardware.

Introduction Hastings Wireless is a group of computer and radio enthusiasts who are pushing the limits of technology to the max!
