Got my "wee beastie" early this afternoon.? Unboxed it & everything looks OK.? I haven't powered it yet.? I have a few questions.
I have an official Pi keyboard and mouse.? I intend to use this instead of the on-screen keyboard.
I have a USB to ethernet adapter.? I will be plugging this into a USB port on the keyboard.
How do I shut the zBit down properly?
Will connecting to the internet this way work for setting the RTC?
It's more likely I will send CW with the keyboard than paddles, as I don't have full and totally normal use of my hands.
How do I update the zBit's software, and what do I need to update?
Ken, N2VIP, made some recent comments about adding a proper shutdown command.? Perhaps someone with better programming skills than mine could do something with the article he referred to. There may be various options available to consider.
Initially I anticipate that I will operate CW and SSB.? Other modes may be used when I get familiar with them.
How do I back up the internal memory card?
I realize this is a collection of comments and questions, but it's what comes to mind quickly.
Gerry
