Flex 6400M & Maestro – the short version

Thought I’d try out a 6400M, see what the Flex kids have been up to.
The experience hasn’t been without its challenges from the beginning, but at this point the radio works fine – the used Maestro “control head” I bought not so much. That’s the risk in buying high-tech used… Once I get over being annoyed at the whole process I’ll probably attempt to find out whether I can afford to fix the Maestro.

More later . As Holmes was known to say, “The game is afoot”.

Watch your heads – Chinese space station falling

Apparently Chinese Space Station Tiangong-1 (Heavenly Palace) is out of control with a decaying orbit, and will crash-land somewhere on Earth in late 2017 or early 2018.

At 8.5 tons, enough metal will be left in the larger fragments (that don’t melt) to do serious damage to whatever they hit.

Watch your head!

I’ve been threatening to do this for some time, and finally got around to trying it. This poor little RPI3 is running Apache 2, PHP 7.0 , mySQL and WordPress.
