Thank you for your reply will do as you suggest.
Update. tried to upgrade and all goes well until the end of the process then get the error
" failed to init device" I have searched around but cannot find how to bootstrap the hat

When you do get the Hotspot updated to the latest firmware level (1.4.17). You may need to change the frequency to stay out of the Satellite band. 438 is right on the edge. Verv1.4.12 has this change in it.

I don't know if there's anything in the MMDVM host software that has this same frequency restriction?

I'm not sure this your current problem, but it could be in the future.

Thanks Pete.
I did try a frequency change to 433.57500 but it made no difference so I changed it back for now.
Apparently if your frequency is wrong the panel shows up in red.
I hope to flash the hat when I find out how to boot strap it.

Thank you for your most welcome help and advice.
I am going to persevere with this because it annoyed me however, I am also going to buy an updated version while I try and sort this one out.
