<p>nq4t.com is statically generated by <a href="https://jekyllrb.com/" target="_blank">jekyll</a> using a highly modified <a href="https://hyde.getpoole.com/" target="_blank">Hyde theme</a>. Both the liquid and CSS have been modified to work how I want. This included some complicated
|
|
|
|
|
changes to “related posts” as well as dealing with pages vs. posts and displaying tags, categories, and posts for each. Changes were also made to the sidebar rendering to
|
|
|
|
|
pick up only specific pages as well as the ordering.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Pages are served up with nginx running on an Ubuntu 22.04 VM. The site is self-hosted in that my VPS is unmanaged by anyone but me. It’s hosted in that the Xen based VM
|
|
|
|
|
lives on a machine in a datacenter. Hosting services are supplied by a private provider. The site source is stored on a self-hosted git instance and rendered by a githook.
|
|
|
|
|
Content not stored in the git (images, external files) are stored in an external folder and automatically symlinked in on site creation.</p>

<h3>QTH Infrastructure</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Some things, like <a href="https://log.nq4t.com" target="_blank">log.nq4t.com</a>, are hosted at my QTH. Here I have <a href="/images/nq4tlab.jpg" target="_blank">3 Xen hypervisors</a> running various services related to my home internet. Most of these VM’s are running
|
|
|
|
|
Alpine linux, however nginx runs on an Ubuntu based VM and pfSense is FBSD based. The home connection is a gigabit fiber connection which recently got IPv6 connectivity.
|
|
|
|
|
I also run an Asterisk server for traditional VoIP service, as well as trunks to HamsOverIP and Hamshack Hotline. Dual instances of pi-hole provide DNS for my entire
|
|
|
|
|
network, with pfSense forcing all DNS activity to them. If you like <a href="/images/qthlab-dark.jpg" target="_blank">loads of blinking lights</a> and loud noises, it’s perfect.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>I also host <a href="http://stats.allstarlink.org/stats/48032" target="_blank">AllStar Node 48032</a> here for the local club, <a href="https://w4ovh.net" target="_new">Ole Virginia Hams.</a> It serves as a hub for our repeaters, as well as allowing IAXRPT access for smartphone/PC voice
|
|
|
|
|
access to the repeaters. As I’ve often said, “I just feed it power and internet.” I also reverse-proxy Supermon2 for management of the node. The system is largely managed by
|
|
|
|
|
our repeater guru, KE2N.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Uptime is maintained with the help of a 1000W/1500VA UPS.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>I use my standard PC/laptop in the shack for both general PC, gaming, and ham use. It is a Ryzen 7 4800H with 32GB RAM, currently running Windows 11.</p>
