Update firmware WD Black SN770 firmware on Arch Linux

Been having problems with my new SN770 drive, and decided to check if I can firmware update it on Linux. WD only provides a Windows tool, Western Digital Dashboard to download and install firmwares, but, it's possible to find the firmware and install it using Linux tooling as well.

1. Check that nvme-cli is installed:

❱ sudo pacman -S nvme-cli

PPM Correction under Raspbian using LTE-Cell-Scanner

LTE-Cell-Scanner under Raspbian (and maybe Ubuntu/Debian)

Mark Jessop vk5qi@rfhead.net 2017-11-19

Here in VK-land, GSM is dying, if not already dead in many parts of the country. As such, RTLSDR calibration tools like kalibrate-rtl are not particularly helpful! However, thanks (mainly) to Telstra, we have a very wide coverage 4G (LTE) network on 'Band 28', which is in a good frequency range for use with a RTLSDR (Downlink band 758 – 803 MHz). LTE-Cell-Scanner provides the 'CellSearch' utility, which will search for LTE cells, and determine the RTLSDR's clock offset. This gist attempt to provide some sort of guide on getting CellSearch running under Raspbian.
