[Flexradio] Virtual Serial Port

2009-09-19 Thread Scott Myers

I'm waiting on the tool to allow me to unscrew the cover to look but in the meantime I thought I'd ask the group if there are any thoughts about this. I use a small screw driver as opposed to the Torx driver. Make sure the ribbon cable is attached to the HRFIO board and the mini coax

Changing firmware rarely has anything at all to do with the calibration of the radio. That is usually PowerSDR dependent. And if a calibration is necessary, you will be prompted to do so from PowerSDR. If you are not upgrading your version of PowerSDR and just upgrading the firmware, then no
