You don't need loader.do. I was only explaining how it would affect the timing and maybe create the symptoms that you saw. If the dsr pin detection decided to invoke sendLoader(), then sendLoader() would spend the next 20 or 30 seconds reading the file from sd and writing to serial before

Does anyone know where I can buy a NASDBox? The Club100 web page for it states that orders are no longer being taken. But the page also indicates that it was last updated in 2011. Does anyone know if someone else has taken up this project in the last nine years, or is it abandoned?
