Again, /run/media/bobg/4C60-B824 is not the block device.

If it were a directory, you'd get an error immediately:

dd: failed to open '/run/media/bobg/4C60-B824': Is a directory

But, you didn't get that error, you just ran out of space, which makes
me think that perhaps you didn't write to anything but a file in
/run.

Please write to the block device.  It probably looks like something
like /dev/sdc, /dev/sdd, etc.  Be sure you are writing to the flash
drive and not, say, the disk where your OS lives.

I suggest installing the 'mediawriter' package, which has the Fedora
Media Writer application in it.  It will guide you through installing
the image to the flash drive.  There's a version for Windows and macOS
too.
