hambitiousHas anyone been able to program a SA818 board? I've tried a few different ways (Python sa818, a C version of the same thing) and it just won't work. I never get a response to the connect message.I'm starting to suspect it's the USB-serial dongle that came with it. Might have to find an Arduino and try it that way, but that's a lot more work. <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/hamRadio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hamRadio</a> <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/vhf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vhf</a> <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/sa818" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sa818</a> <a href="https://mastodon.radio/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#linux</a>
