[hpsdr] Angelia_v2.8 firmware download

[Michael St. Angelo]

Joe,

I did a upgrade to v2.8 and downgrade to v2.7. They were successful with
HPDSRProgrammerV2 nopcap 2.0.4.5.

I did see the programming status messages. The programming time is much
faster with the new code.

I also verified again the 10 meter power drops  to 75 watts with v2.8 is at
100 watts with the v2.7.

Hope you can see this problem.

73,

Mike N2MS

Okay, thanks.  I am scheduled to receive an actual ANAN-100D here today so I
will be able to test the behavior of Tx and filter switching here shortly,
too.  There is no reason that I can think of to explain your observations
(please check that Angelia_v2.8 is actually showing up as the firmware
version in your PowerSDR menu when you think v2.8 is in your unit).

Restoring v2.7 and the power out on 10m is also fixed.

2013-12-1 ans in programmed successfully. The erase cycle took about a
minute. The programming cycle took less that 5 seconds.

took about a minute. It then stataed "1 board found". There was not any
programming message. I ran a discover and it showed Angelia v2.7.
