[hpsdr] Help updating firmware

OK thanks Bill.

I was able to update Pennelope to V1.3 and Mercury to V2.9 successfully. I did find that the Mercury update Bat file needs updating to support the latest version of Quartus but that was a simple edit.

But when I run PowerSDR I still get the same message

Invalid Firmware Level
Ozy>=13, Penelope>=12, Mercury>=27.

Any ideas?

There's no firmware on Ozy, it's loaded by PowerSDR when you press 
the  on button on the radio console.

Regards,

Bill
