DigiPi, Oh My

One of my news feeds featured an announcement about a new version of the DigiPi software.

I ordered a new Pi Zero 2W, dug a micro SD card out of a drawer, and connected it to my IC-705.

Oh my, this is going to be fun: APRS messaging, iGate, Winlink via Pat, and if I have an HF antenna, FT8, JS8Call, and fldigi.

The Pi serves all of this through a web browser.

I’ve put a very minimal set of how-to steps in my shack guide.

Next on the agenda is to try interfacing the DigiRig with the IC-705 via wifi. Since the configuration options aren’t especially accessible, this may necessitate flashing a new micro SD card. But it would save a cable.
