Indoor CB11m antenna






















De multa vreme am pastrat informatia asta la "secret de serviciu" :-) ...dar acum cred ca este momentul sa va arat ca un simplu parasolar auto din folie de Aluminiu este un plan de masa destul de bun pt ca sa aveti un SWR < 1.5 ! Asta chiar daca antena (o antena Hustler de numai 1m lungime) este plasata intr-o incapere :-) iar in oras cu blocuri si betoane tot bate 2...4km cu cei 4w out. 73's !

Peppermint OS 4 Linux



















Iata o alta distributie Linux bazata pe Debian / Ubuntu care ruleaza bine pe un PC mai vechi P4/2Gh/512MB RAM ... nu o cunosc bine, dar la prima vedere promite mult.
Ieri spre seara a fost o deschidere in 11m band cu skip lung :

Simplicity Linux from UK


















O "derivata" a lui Puppy Linux (original din Australia) vine din UK si se numeste "Simplicity Linux" ... este un pic mai mare si cere un memory stick de 1GB pentru instalare (asta nu-i o problema mare ... :-) dar pachetul de aplicatii disponibile este mult mai rafinat si dupa cum vedeti ruleaza fara probleme pe un P4-2Gh/512Mb, iar la internet se conecteaza usor prin RDS.

Linux Slacko Puppy 5.7























E superb !
Booteaza si ruleaza de pe un memory stick USB ... intra direct in RAM si ocupa numai vreo 256MB ! Pe un PC vechi cu procesor P4/2Gh si 512MB RAM se vede ca se simte foarte bine.
La internet s-a conectat destul de usor cu un pic de atentie ... pt. RDS folositi "PPPOE" (atentie la user si password) si setati un firewall.

Windows XP ... adio !

 "Bliss" este o fotografie reala facuta clasic pe film si fara trucruri digitale !













Artistul fotograf este Charles O Rear.

Windows XP’s refugees have two choices on April 8, when Microsoft stops supporting the decade-old operating system (for consumers, anyway). This is assuming a new PC with a new operating system (even Windows 7) is, for whatever reason, out of the question. They could cling desperately to their old Windows XP system and face what could be a hacker feeding frenzy, something we don’t recommend even if you take precautions. Or they could keep the old PC but install a new, free, and safe operating system— PCWorld.com


Probleme majore pot avea cei care acceseaza internetu' in mod direct fara router/firewall separat... solutia este instalarea unui firewall de ultima generatie si update la broswer. Cei interesati ma pot gasi in Deva (0722 890420)
O alta solutie radicala este migrarea la sistemul Linux ( recomand Ubuntu /Lubuntu) este super ok pentru cei care doresc in special office/internet ... si mai greu pentru gameri / proiectare cu AutoCAD (totusi se poate rula cu emulatorul "wine" un CAD2D facut de francezi care deschide 2010.dwg si este freeware :-) )
