Can you post any updates on youre Helium mining in this section , thanks .
opps, just posted in the Eth thread.
going good £1000 worth of HNT in 30 days. Helped that there are about 30 other miners in range to connect to reap the poc rewards. Wont be anywhere nears as good come August though when they halve the HNT rewards, that and more miners piling onto the network reducing cake for everyone.
Halving is now in. 2.5 million HNT per month now for the next 2 years. After you factor in the validators share and other rewards going to the devs etc that leaves 1.4 million HNT per month to be distributed to the miners. Currently 104k miners on the network.
have you upgraded your antenna? ive got a 4.2dbi and an 8dbi rak antenna. Moved into the loft to max the beaconing but im still tempted install it outside as the signal is being blocked serverly to the sides due to the concrete walls. Signal has no trouble penetrating forward trough the roof tiles though.
Yeah antenna all set correct 8.5 dbi , i have just ordered a 5.8dbi so called tuned so will see how that goes read i will get crippled with this PoCv11 with an 8.5.
Mine is mounted outside on the roof i made up a temp bracket that slide under the roof tiles , its working ok so i ordered the proper one ready for winter winds.
Its like testing lnb's again :D
if you can clear roof tops you should send your signal way out. Not sure if my 4.2 is being hindered with the 5m cable it came with. They recommend lmr 400 and to keep the cable as short as possible. the Rak came with a short a **** cable so not much loss on that but the N connector is reversed so i cant swap antennas without using an adaptor.
pocv11 pushed back till 1st nov. There are that many miners on the network i cant see the earnings going up for the legit users. Most of my witnesses are local with only a few more long range picked up with the 8dbi vs the 4.2 so i dont think it wil put to much of a dent in earnings.
got 1 about 30 miles away, im guessing hes in a block of flats at there are loads of miners in the area that i dont hit.
helium peaked as $25.8 last night, i sold a 100 at $25.2 and bought back in at $22.5 earlier, would be nice if it keeps doing this for a while.
New tile mount arrived today so decided to fit it , now almost all off the Ariel 8.5 above roofline but down to 8 on discovery mode was min of 16 probably 3 foot lower odd.
Another lost day , box did an update overnight got home to find blue lights mad it does not reboot itself after an update .
So i though may as well fit the new antenna going to take day or 2 to resink in again.
Pulled it down only to find one antenna male other female :D back up with the original :D
Lol my ass it does , last 2 updates just sits there with blue lights fully on , and box does nothing it kicked back into life at 7.57 pm after i rebooted it at 3 .
Kicked back into life today , im not looking at in now then it seems to be working better :D
hnt up, lets have $50 by year end
Today has been another bad day ,yesterday $28 today $5 , so i decided to swap 9dbi , to the custom 5.8. also found the fast sync on linxdot .
Maintenance again tonight so see how it goes tomorrow.
