[hpsdr] Operating Penelope without Mercury Board

[Ronald Cox]

Bill,

In PowerSDR Setup>Radio Model, if I select anything other than Demo/ 
None, I get a fatal error because the hardware is not there. If I  
select Demo/None the MOX control is grayed out even though I have  
selected all the other HPSDR hardware correctly. I am willing to wait  
for the the Mercury board delivery, but it would be nice to know that  
the hardware I have is working as well as can be expected. I am just  
looking for the best test using the hardware that I have. I would buy  
a SoftRock 40, but they are unavailable now.
