[hpsdr] Metis Arrived & Works!

[Phil Harman]

Hi Gordon,

Glad to hear that Metis is working well for you. I've yet to implement the
"Full Spectrum" display in KK but will do shortly.

I'll add this to the next release that will also support PennyLane.

As Jeremy mentioned, Metis comes ready programmed with V1.0 so no need to
re-program it unless you want to experiment with John's HPSDR Programmer
application.

One thing the Beta testers found was that the CPU load running PowerSDR
with Metis compared with Ozy/Magister was significantly lower.

I'd be interested in your findings.
