I finally had time to package up my OP25 system onto a ready-to-run image for an RPi3. This is based on the full Raspbian Stretch OS with GUI, so it's a 1.3 GB download. It's at http://febo.com/pages/os_images, along with a couple of other RPi images (one for an NTP time server, another that makes a bunch of RTL-SDR dongles look like a single Hermes HPSDR receiver). After downloading, unzip the file (it'll be a bit over 4GB) and write to an 8GB SD card. Stick the card in your Pi and wait for the desktop to appear. This system has Graham's (github.com/boatbod) latest code and if you happen to live in Montgomery County, Ohio, and have an HDMI monitor with speakers, you are all set to go. :-) Otherwise, you'll need to make appropriate edits to the config files and possibly change the sound settings. Enjoy! 73, John

You're welcome, Tom. I hope it works for those who try it! And by the way -- At my request, Graham added a few user-friendly features that I don't think are mentioned in the documentation. In particular: * There is an on-screen cheat-sheet to keyboard commands * In trunk.tsv, lines beginning with "#" are ignored as comments, so you can have multiple systems and select by uncommenting * The whitelist and blacklist files can now be in the same format as the tag file -- the first field is the TGID and other (tab separated) fields are ignored. This is *really* nice because you can now just cut/paste from the tag file into the whitelist file, and the descriptions let you know just what you're including/excluding. * If you are monitoring a site with more than about 20 frequencies, the stock rx.py program crashes. Graham's code has a hack to address this: just make the terminal window tall enough to show all the frequency status lines. My local site has 24 freqs, and this was a life-saver for me.
