locked My DRAWS arrived, video inside

Steve McGrane <temporarilyoffline@...>
The wiki page is worth 30 words (I counted)... and a picture is worth 1000 words so they say, then this video must be worth at least 1030 words. So here are my 1030 words on the subject. I go over receiving the board and burning the image from the command line and also from the GUI using etcher. Stay Tuned for more! - Steve, KM9G

UNDERSTAND VIDEO 1, WHERE IS THE NEXT PROMISED BOOT UP VIDEO. IS THE RASPBERRY PI INSTALLED ON THE SD CHIP WHERE I AM ETCHING TO? OR IS THE SD CHIP BLANK?
THANKS, FRED

Hi Fred, We are all anxiously awaiting Steve's next installment. In the meantime, what his video shows is burning the image to a new/blank/reused SD Card. Once you have the SD card burned and ready to go, the DRAWS™ HAT is mounted to a Raspberry Pi (Any of models 2 through 3+) and the SD card is inserted to the Raspberry Pi for bootup. If you have a monitor, keyboard, and mouse plugged in, you should see the system come up when you power it on.

By default gpsd is installed as well as chrony (ntpd) which will update the clock. There are several threads in topics, as well as some wiki documentation to help you out. If you want to access the GPS directly you would need to turn off gpsd and open /dev/ttySC0 Use gpsmon, cgps, and/or gpspipe to access GPS information from gpsd.

This sort of Sucks. I have to pay 30.00 CDN duty to receive the Draws. The custom declaration should have said Amateur Radio use. Unless President Trump and Mexico changed the rules and didn’t let as Canadian know. Don va7dgp

Hi Don. Amateur radio use is not exempt from taxes and duties. The Post Office has to collect both when they are the broker of your USA goods. Mr Trump and the Mexicans have nothing to do with this. Your Prime Minister is the cause of the confusion. He has not brought the agreement in principle forward to be ratified by parliament. I just went through this with the Draws myself, believing what I heard in the news that we could now shop online up to a certain new limit, bla bla bla. It is all just bla bla bla intended to distract western Canadians from the train wreck in Ottawa. Just thought you might like to know. Fred VE7FMN

Let's stay on the subject of this topic. Taxes and Politics don't belong here. Two thoughts to keep in mind: 1. NW Digital Radio has received requests from time to time to falsify customs declarations to affect taxes and tariffs. It is company policy that we will not honor such requests. 2. If you feel there is additional information that would be helpful to our shipping department, include it in the comments section when placing an order. We appreciate your business.

Really, you waste bandwidth because your government charges import taxes. Try living in Europe. Suck it up.
