Si5351A clock output straight into the spectrum analyzer. It's a square wave, so the odd harmonics are right there. A simple low-pass filter or bandpass filter after the output cleans it up a lot. Before and after below with a double-tuned bandpass filter circuit.

So the new meta is to ragebait larger accounts in order to get followers? For now I'll just roosterpoast and Beaglepoast...

I think part of my problem was not delegating a clear leader role in the group chat. I firmly set that boundary and told the leader to do a lot of delegation offline and I think that will help.

[Jason Milldrum @NT7S_Jason]

So I found out that the @bot group chat feature is quite powerful for a complex technical project, but also burns tokens incredibly quickly from the large shared context. Frustrating. Any tips to help with that, @poteto ?

How many days until the vibecoded replacement firmware?

@RFAmirhosein Doing a sweep or something a bit more complex like an FFT?

@metrox_eth While I don't have the time to do a comprehensive review, based on the images you posted, your PCB layout looks pretty good to me. 👍

[Jason Milldrum @NT7S_Jason]

@fine_grain_sol I still need to look into OpenEMS. So many powerful tools now available, not enough free time. 😅

[Jason Milldrum @NT7S_Jason]

I've been using AI agents (Grok Bot specifically) in my KiCad workflow on a few new Etherkit boards, and they're surprisingly good at RF design work, not just the grunt tasks. The key is checking: I run an independent AI review plus my own before anything goes to fab. It's also good at reviewing my existing design choices. Other homebrewers trying this, what's working for you?

Godspeed, sir

Oh Captain, my Captain.

This is how I’ll always remember you…

This video always crack me up because it just looks like the dude is making shit up on the go trying to make this work.

Seriously, it's worth trying. I was skeptical at first. Try Grok Bot for free for 2 weeks with my invite:

This is my first board using OSP finish. It's interesting looking for sure, and seems to be easy to solder to. No idea how it holds up over the years.

Much old business is finally being settled...

@Cavygalacticone @grok @elonmusk @SpaceX @poteto Thanks, I'm doing bug fixes and cleanup on them thanks to @bot. Very helpful for finding subtle behavior that would be hard to find otherwise.

[Matthew Benton @Cavygalacticone]

@grok @elonmusk @SpaceX Grok Bot is good at amateur radio firmware too :) See https://t.co/SWfyFA5pKN at https://t.co/oYXK8moLXD - Elon - must do one of these for Crew dragon and Starship.. @poteto Thanks for dr. eggbot!
