I had a 128 sd card with my image all setup and working. so I just matched that size SSD and wrote the sd card image backup to the SSD and it went flawlessly. I still maintain the sd card as a backup.

To avoid the SD card issues, I have an SSD connected via USB into my pi. You still need to go through proper shut down, but my SD cards have failed me on multiple occasions. So far, fingers crossed, t

I was asked in another group, one for JS8, what I was doing about temperature on my Pi. Here is my response and pic of my fan install. I have been getting mid to upper 60's C, with one time I noted 71

It’s on the barrel. I was only curious as I’ve been playing with my back up battery to run JS8 as a test of my emergency station. Kevin, K3VIN

What is the minimum voltage at which the hat will operate? Kevin, K3VIN

Here is a photo of my new setup running off of a 14ah battery. I was running the 817 with 2.5 watts. The only thing left is a monitor dedicated to the Pi so I don't have to VNC into it. Kevin, K3VIN

Old post, but at what voltage does the hat shutdown everything down? Kevin, K3VIN

Just an update and follow-up to all my requests for assistance setting up my hat. I have the both radios working on JS8 using the setalsa that Basil made for those radios! (Thanks if I failed to say t

well, since it mentioned squelch I decided to go ahead and break it off. Interestingly my 817 had no squelch with the cable plugged in if the pie and draws hat did not have power. Now I have squelch w

No, I need to change the baud in the software, the alsa and linux settings, not the rig. That rig is all set. Tnx Kevin

Follow-up question: I know I have seen it in the docs, but cannot find now. I need to adjust the baud rate for the 817. I am using the 706_817 alsa, and the 706 is working fine. I just can't remember

If I am reading this right, do I need to remove this pin from my cable into my 817? Does this also apply to other apps like JS8? Running FLdigi with the Yaesu FT-817 Radio Configuration Set Radio for

Fixed! Power out, but ALC may be too high. Tnx all fer the help on this project! I'm sure I will be back for more! 73 Kevin, K3VIN

IC-706 has PTT and is decoding JS8. I do not appear to be sending out any signal, which is probably an ALC or other setting in the rig that I have to figure out. This is the first time I am using this

It is stopped. Sorry, but it it is in the CAT Control and RIG Options I only get: /dev/tty, /dev/ttySC0, dev/ttySC1 and USB. None allow CAT control or PTT. My issue is really just getting PTT. I am de

Ok. I’m sure I had stopped it, but I’ll recheck. K

On the DRAWS hat, shouldn't the soundcard show up as some version of a codec? I saw that somewhere, but I only have variations of /tty in my JS8 software list and FLRig on the pi image. Kevin

Excellent! Many thanks. Kevin

As some may know from a post yesterday, I am not very well versed on linux. So, in looking thru the setalsa scripts, I was wondering if it is possible to have one for the 706 on the left, and the 817

Also curious on another issue: In the setalsa, there are 2 different scripts for the IC-706. What are the differences? Kevin
