OpenGD77

Quick question regarding the most recent release. (And TU for all you do) Does this version support SMS under hotspot mode, or under HT mode? Is this feature on the roadmap? TU and 73, de Luis, HB9HJU (and KC7ILO/HI8ILO) No. Hotspot mode only supports audio. SMS could not be supported unless someon...

This Beta hopefully now fully fixes the Settings Update bug. It also gives slightly better battery life than the previous Beta. Thanks to all the people who have been testing the many private betas over the last week, while Daniel and I were trying to find what was causing the "Settings Update" pro...

WAO... that was FAST... just tested it and can confirm it's properly changing CCs in accordance to the config file. Testing everything else now

I just encountered the weirdest of bugs with this update. After updating, according to the display the hotspot is in color code 3 even though Pi-Star is configured for CC1, see below
Any suggestions?

This version solved the dropout, hickup and and BER issues I was experiencing with the Jan 16th version. I hadn't noticed before but the way the information is presented with TA showing in hotspot mode is very good and clean almost making unnecessary having a NEXTION display for a RPi. Regarding sta...
