Announcing Request for Proposals for Education Projects and Amateur Radio Clubs
by Rosy Wolfe 31 Mar '21

31 Mar '21

Hello 44net! We have two new RFPs out, hot off the presses! The below text is posted on the blog, and I want to make sure you have it too. Please share with projects and organizations you think would make a good fit. Many thanks and 73, Rosy // Calling all educators and ham clubs! Amateur Radio Digital Communications (ARDC) is pleased to announce two requests for proposals (RFPs), designed to support amateur radio clubs as well as teachers who are interested in educating the next generation about amateur radio and digital communication science. The RFP for Amateur Radio Clubs seeks to support projects happening at amateur radio clubs. For this year, such grants are restricted to clubs inside of the United States. Grants in this category will be reviewed in two grant windows – the first one is short (starts now and ends on May 1, 2021), and the second one will run throughout the summer: Summer * Submissions due: May 1, 2021 * Distribution target: July 1, 2021 Fall * Submissions due: August 1, 2021 * Distribution target: October 1, 2021 More information, including a Q+A about eligibility and requirements, can be found in the RFP for Amateur Radio Clubs: https://www.ampr.org/wp-content/uploads/2021-03-ardc-amateur-radio-club.pdf The RFP for Education Projects is open to educational organizations both in the US and internationally. This granting window has one cycle, with distributions targeted for August 1, 2021 – ideally before the 2021-2022 school year starts. * Submissions due: June 1, 2021 * Distribution target: August 1, 2021 As with the RFP for Amateur Radio Clubs, more information can be found in the Education Project RFP: https://www.ampr.org/wp-content/uploads/2021-education-rfp.pdf SOME Q&A ABOUT THESE RFPS Thinking back on some questions that have come up at our community discussions, there are some high-level questions I imagine some folks will have. Here are answers to some of those. Q: Why is the Education Projects RFP open to international applicants, while the RFP for Supporting Amateur Radio Clubs is only open to applicants in the US? A: In order to most effectively get funds to amateur radio clubs internationally, we are looking to partner with organizations who can help to distribute such grants to clubs in their local area. We also have an exciting announcement about this brewing, so stay tuned! In the meantime, please direct any questions to giving(a)ampr.org. Q: How much do you plan to give to each one of these categories? A: ARDC is purposefully not setting a floor or limit on the number of grants that we will give in either category, or on the amounts given for each grant. The quality and quantity of applications that we get will determine the answers. With this in mind – we challenge you to tell as many people you know to help us get the word out! If you have more questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out: giving(a)ampr.org We look very forward to seeing your proposals! -- Rosy Wolfe - KJ7RYV Executive Director Amateur Radio Digital Communications (ARDC) ampr.org

DNS updates
by Dan Keizer 26 Mar '21

26 Mar '21

Hi there. First-off, I don't normally post much to the group. I've been involved with the IP side of ampr.org since 1991 or so. We've run various gateways throughout the years and keep on expanding what we offer the local ham populations and ham services elsewhere. It was Brian who had given our group or network BGP auth letters. It takes alot of work to keep these systems running, and I know there's lots of people working on various aspects of our infrastructure. I have an issue that I would like some feedback from the ampr.org group on how to move this forward. We host a few ham websites for our groups and are transferring some of those to our data center with new upgrades/etc. To complete this process, there are a few DNS changes we need to have changed that are required. I've reached out to Luc Pernot (who is listed as our CDN contact person). He's confirmed he is the contact person (with a single word "yes"), but he has been completely unresponsive to support my request for DNS changes. I've reached out to G1FEF to support these changes. He initially indicated that even though the authority letter was issued to our va4wan group, and even though I was using the group's email to send the request to, he required the other domain admin person to make the request as the address block was in his name in our groups' email address. I even had this other admin person email him, and we have had no further contact since. And, by the way, I am the holder of the group callsign (va4wan) assignment from our Canadian radio authority. This request of mine initially started at the beginning of the month in March. It's now March 26. Two questions I have. Is there some other way in which we can update the DNS ourselves (like we did before) directly on ampr.org? How do I contact an admin person to assist with these changes in its current state? I understand this has been a volunteer group for the most part and I realize there may be various issues from time to time. I'd like to understand how we can be more efficient at handling change requests such as this in the future. I appreciate your feedback. 73, Dan ve4drk (va4wan admin)

Setting up a vps for vpn routing of bgp subnet
by Eric Fort 24 Mar '21

24 Mar '21

Very shortly I will be setting up my vultr vps to route 44.18.28/22. Is there a faq or howto as to how to do this? I need to feed subnets to a couple different sites. Also I see many are using open vpn. Why open vpn as opposed to say IPSec, l2tp, ike2. Those that have preceded me down this road of bgp announcing your subnet ( or having your isp announce it for you) then using a Linux vpn server to connect your endpoints how did you do it once you had the loa in hand and why did you choose the software and methods you did? Thanks, Eric Af6ep Sent using SMTP. Sent using SMTP.

OpenVPN For Dummies
by Angelo 23 Mar '21

23 Mar '21

Hi Guys, Boy!! I must be getting really old. Some of this stuff is just not making any sense to me. Hi HI. I finally have all my routing (/24) from the ISP to the 44 network worked out. Matter of fact, I am able to use the OpenVPN client with no issue on a windows box. It is displaying the 44 address with no issues. ( I think I have it right.) I am able to access the internet with no issues. To the hard part. I am using an Ubiquiti EdgeRouter10X. I have been able to get the Edge to connect to the VPN server, but beyond that, I am unable to use a static address on any of my other devices and be able to access the internet. Here is some of the errors I am getting. Some of the error messages I am getting are : Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: TCP/UDP: Preserving recently used remote address: [AF_INET]44.108.2.2:1194 Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: Socket Buffers: R=[180224->180224] S=[180224->180224] Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: UDP link local: (not bound) Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: UDP link remote: [AF_INET]44.108.2.2:**** ( hinden ) Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: write UDP: Network is unreachable (code=128) Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: Network unreachable, restarting Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: SIGUSR1[soft,network-unreachable] received, process restarting Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: Restart pause, 20 second(s) The version of > Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: TCP/UDP: Preserving recently used > remote address: [AF_INET]44.108.2.2:1194 > Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: Socket Buffers: R=[180224->180224] > S=[180224->180224] > Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: UDP link local: (not bound) > Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: UDP link remote: > [AF_INET]44.108.2.2:1194 > Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: write UDP: Network is unreachable > (code=128) > Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: Network unreachable, restarting > Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: SIGUSR1[soft,network-unreachable] > received, process restarting > Mar 3 13:23:23 ubnt openvpn[1839]: Restart pause, 20 second(s) > The OS on the Edge is v.09 Hot fix. I am hoping to use some of the other ports for other eth (1-8 ) ports on the switch for other devices on the 44 network. Allstar, DX cluster, BPQ, Winlink etc. Guys, be gentle with me. I feel as dumb as a rock right now. Any help would be appreciated. Angelo

Inviting you to ARDC Grantmaking Survey + Community Jitsi Call
by Rosy Wolfe 12 Mar '21

12 Mar '21

Hello 44net! Hope you are healthy and well wherever you are. I'm writing to invite you to a couple of things. 1. ARDC Grantmaking Survey The first is an invitation to take this survey about ARDC grant making, which you can find here: https://www.mysurveygizmo.com/s3/5789610/ARDC-Grantmaking-Feedback-Survey The survey covers our existing granting goals and some of the kinds of projects that we've funded so far. What do you think? What other grants would you like to see? Do you know of organizations, either in the US or abroad, that you'd like to see us fund? Let us know - it shouldn't take more than 5 minutes, more if you decide to give some longer written-out answers. 2. 44net + ARDC Community Video Call We'll go over the results together in a community video call, happening Saturday Oct. 10, 2020, at 17:00 UTC (10am PT / 1pm ET / 6pm BST / 7pm CEST). On this call, we'll introduce ARDC Board members, grants advisory committee members, and staff; go over the survey results together; talk about our grants made to date; and talk about any questions you have. If there's anything in particular you'd like ARDC to cover in the call, please let us know by responding to this mail or sending me a message directly: rosy(a)ampr.org. Here is the link to the call: https://meet.jit.si/ardc-44net-community-meeting-oct-10-2020 A note on the times: I realize that the times listed are more convenient for folks in the Americas, Africa, and Europe. If enough people from Asia and Australia wish to join but can't for timing reasons, we may do another group call for those time zones. Part of this exercise is also learning about 44net's distribution - where is everyone located? I'm looking forward to finding out. I'm also looking forward to better getting to know 44net and the greater ham community, and to use what I learn to help shape ARDC's 2021 grantmaking strategy. We are in a fortunate position to do a lot of good in the world - so let's do it! All the best, Rosy -- Rosy Wolfe Executive Director Amateur Radio Digital Communications (ARDC) ampr.org
