[hpsdr] Operating Configurations

[Christopher T. Day]

Lyle,

In principle, I kind of like this idea, but I'd hoped to keep the USB
Device Descriptor of what's implemented on the board actually _on_ the
board. The 256-bit DS2430 is too small for that - it could only hold a
DID, which punts the equivalent of the descriptor problem off to some
remote entity. The DS2506 is probably big enough, but costs $3.74 each
in units of 100. That feels somewhat expensive. Long lead time as well.

P.S. - Clearly far too much fun.

What if we dedicate yet another ATLAS tine - X16C0/pin A18 - to a 1-wire

bus and add a Dallas 1-wire serial number chip with EEPROM (DS2430 
series, for example...
