    Amateur Radio Software Distributed with (X)Ubuntu LTS Serge Stroobandt, ON4AA Copyright 2014–2018, licensed under Creative Commons BY-NC-SA Introduction Amateur radio (also called “ham radio”), is a technical hobby Many ham radio stations are highly integrated with computers. Radios are interfaced with com- puters to aid with contact logging, propagation prediction, station spotting, antenna steering, signal (de)modulation and filtering. For many years, amateur radio software has been a bastion of Windows™ ap- plications developed by However, with the advent of the Rasperry Pi, amateur radio hobbyists are slowly but surely discovering GNU/Linux. Most of the software for GNU/Linux is available through package repositories. Such package repositories come by default with the GNU/Linux distribution of your choice. Package management systems offer many benefits in the form of security (you know what you are getting from whom) and ease-of-use (packages are upgraded automatically). No longer does one need to wander the back corners of the internet to find wne or updated software, exposing oneself to the risk of catching a computer virus. A number of GNU/Linux distributions offer freely installable ham-related packages under the “Amateur Radio” section of their main repository. The largest collection of ham radio packages is offeredy b OpenSuse and De- bian-derived distributions like Xubuntu LTS and Linux Mint, to name but a few. Arch Linux may also have whole bunch of ham related software in the Arch User Repository (AUR). 1 Synaptic One way to find and tallins ham radio packages on Debian-derived distros is by using the Synaptic graphical package manager (see Figure 1).

  • Experiences in Using Open Source Software for Teaching Electronic Engineering CAD
    Experiences in Using Open Source Software for Teaching Electronic Engineering CAD Dr Simon Busbridge1 & Dr Deshinder Singh Gill School of Computing, Engineering and Mathematics, University of Brighton, Brighton BN2 4GJ [email protected] Abstract Embedded systems and simulation distinguish modern professional electronic engineering from that learnt at school. First year undergraduates typically have little appreciation of engineering software capabilities and file handling beyond elementary word processing. This year we expedited blended teaching through the experiential based learning process via open source engineering software. Students engaged with the entire electronic engineering product creation process from inception, performance simulation, printed circuit board design, manufacture and assembly, to cabinet design and complete finished product. Currently students learn software skills using a mixture of electronic and mechanical engineering software packages. Although these have professional capability they are not available off-campus and are sometimes surprisingly poor in simulating real world devices. In this paper we report use of LTspice, FreePCB and OpenSCAD for the learning and teaching of analogue electronics simulation and manufacture. Comparison of the software options, the type of tasks undertaken, examples of student assignments and outputs, and learning achieved are presented. Examples of assignment based learning, integration between the open source packages and difficulties encountered are discussed. Evaluation of student attitudes and responses to this method of learning and teaching are also discussed, and the educational advantages of using this approach compared to the use of commercial packages is highlighted. Introduction Most educational establishments use software for simulating or designing engineering. Most commercial packages come with an academic licence which restricts access to on-site computers.

Some to-dos are listed in Chapt. 24.3. More is surely needed. You are invited to report bugs, missing items, wrongly described items, bad English style, etc. How to use this Manual The manual is a “work in progress.” It may accompany a specific ngspice release, e.g. ngspice-35 as manual version 35. If its name contains ‘Version xxplus’, it describes the actual code status, found at the date of issue in the Git Source Code Management (SCM) tool. This manual is intended to provide a complete description of ngspice’s functionality, features, commands, and procedures. This manual is not a book about learning SPICE usage, however the novice user may find some hints how to start using ngspice. Chapter 21.1 gives a short introduction how to set up and simulate a small circuit. Chapter 32 is about compiling and installing ngspice from a tarball or the actual Git source code, which you may find on the ngspice web pages. If you are running a specific Linux distribution, you may check if it provides ngspice as part of the package.
