[hpsdr] Penelope Firmware Upgrade

[Joe Martin K5SO]

Hi Ken,

No.  You only need to run Program-Penelope-EPCS4.bat in the latest  
USBBlaster-Binaries folder to upgrade your Penelope.  The USBBlaster- 
Binaries folder was recently updated to include selections for  
Penelope v1.4 so if you don't have the latest version of USBBlaster- 
Binaries folder you need to download it.

With Magister, you should be able to run Program-Penelope-EPCS4.bat  
and select your version of the Quartus II Programmer from the menu (I  
assume you have the QuartusII Programmer installed already, right?)  
then select Penelope v1.4 from the next menu, assuming you have the  
driver installed for Win7.  If you haven't installed the signed driver  
for Win7 you need to download it and install it first.

73,  Joe K5SO
