The Raspberry Pi 4 announcement claims that the GPIO is pin compatible with the 2 and 3. If this holds true, then the physical connection to the DRAWS™ HAT should be fully compatible. We have yet to k

I have not implemented or tested this, but it should work. Raspbian is Linux on the Raspberry Pi, so you only need the Pi plus DRAWS™ HAT and radios. The wiring to the radio is straightforward using t

Hi All, The new Raspberry Pi 4 has some interesting features and we certainly will be looking at it, however, we at NW Digital Radio do not get any advance engineering information from the Raspberry P

Yes they will. The delay is, in part, working with the manufacturer to get the case "just right". In the meantime the C4Labs case works nicely with the early adopter HATS, if you are looking to provid

The draws board can go ALSA or Pulse Audio. Pulse audio maps left and right connectors as separate mono alsa devices. https://github.com/nwdigitalradio/split-channels

The DRAWS™ HAT has two mono radio interfaces, they are the left and right channels of a single sound chip.

Jordan says "There is GPIO support via an external PTT script. You can learn more in the "Radio (CAT and PTT control)" section of the documentation: https://docs.google.com/document/d/159S4wqMUVdMA7qB

The PTT through the 6 pin mini DIN cable is controlled by GPIO. If a particular software package doesn't support Raspberry Pi GPIO, then another method needs to be selected (VOX, CAT, etc.) -- You mig

It should also be mentioned, you can use apt-get upgrade package-name to upgrade packages without upgrading everything. Eg. sudo apt-get upgrade nano only upgrades the nano editor (and packages that i

Contact the authors of hamlib, wsjt-x, etc. and request GPIO support for Pi. fldigi has it because it was added by the developers.

For DRAWS™ HAT setup - See https://nw-digital-radio.groups.io/g/udrc/wiki/DRAWS%3A-Image-getting-started For iptables and other Linux Admin functions, use Raspbian Stretch documentation.

BTW, the little bluetooth CAT adapters don't seem to register as serial ports with Raspbian Linux -- use the USB versions instead. If anyone discovers a bluetooth that works, let us know. John D. Hays

You will need the USB equivalent of a Yaesu CT-62 (you will find 3rd party versions on Ebay and Amazon).

As Basil says, his AX25 scripts start and stop both the Direwolf modem and the AX25 stack. YAAC is pretty simple to connect. With direwolf running, you simply go into interfaces and select an AGW inte

CAT control does not go through that connection, so what are you using for the CAT cable?
