Re: What is lowest BER folks have achieved with a Zumspot?

The ZUMspot is available again (via HRO in the U.S.) and Jim, KI6ZUM, is now handling the production. You might want to try contacting via his email address, which is available on QRZ.

Re: Strange hotspot behavior

My Nextion came with a little board that is USB on one end and +5v/Ground on the other. I used that board to power the fan.
Oh, good idea. Thanks!

Re: Strange hotspot behavior

I picked up one of these little 5v fans
Where did you plug in the fan?

Re: Unable to access ZUMspot-RPi Zero W

Good troubleshooting! With a RPi Zero W, you should be able to use the Auto AP feature to establish your WiFi connection.

Re: Dashboard = Color|Colour - Blue is new Red

First things first: you really need to pay attention to Andy's warning in his CSS Editor announcement: "I have not *yet* added sanity checking, so be a little careful." Make sure you create a backup before you play around this feature. Second, to pick a color, use a tool like this one I ju...

Re: Dashboard = Color|Colour - Blue is new Red

I actually like the default color scheme, but have been trying out the new CSS Tool this morning and noticed a few things: The Wireless Configuration module's banner color doesn't change. I haven't been able to figure out what the BannerH2 and BannerExtText fields should do when Enabled = 1. It woul...

Re: What is lowest BER folks have achieved with a Zumspot?

Same here. I typically get 0.0% with a ZUMspot and a Hytera AR-685. Are you sure you have a ZUMspot (typically a white board)? There's a similar looking board that's a clone of the MMDVM_HS Hat called a JumboSPOT (green board with different architecture and different firmware) that is sometimes conf...

Re: Using Pistar to flash DVMEGA hat on a RPi

Agreed about the bricking! I preface my firmware update notes with: Important! Soldering a DVMEGA and updating its firmware are at your own risk. The only thing that is guaranteed is that if you wreck your DVMEGA doing this, then you own a wrecked DVMEGA. That said, I've done it on three different D...
