The IP address is now reset to the new subnet and my piHPSDR controller is
working fine.  Thanks to Bill, KC9XG for setting me straight.

Subject: piHPSDR Configuration Error

I received a piHPSDR controller today and I'm trying to start it with an
ANAN 200D transceiver. I am getting a "Subnet!" error after I complete the
device discovery process. 
piHPSDR DOES discover the Orion card at the 192.168.5.2 address but instead
of seeing the "START" box, it shows as a "SUBNET!" error. The error display
looks exactly like that shown on p. 12 of the piHPSDR manual. I have also
tried connecting piHPSDR directly to the ANAN 200D. I get the same result
with the "Subnet!" error.

Here's what the manual says:

"The discovery protocol will allow a device to see and respond even if they
are not on the same subnet. If this is the case, the Start button will be
disabled and the text replaced with Subnet The most common cause of this
problem is usually that the radio has not been able to get a DHCP address
and has defaulted to the Self Assigned IP Address, or the device has a
static IP address that is not on the same subnet as the piHPSDR."

My ANAN 200D's Orion board is configured with the IP address of 192.168.5.2.
It works fine when running PSDR mRx from my desktop PC. That configuration
is a Dell i7 PC running under Win10. 

All my SDRs operate on the 192.168.5.xxx subnet from a 2nd PC LAN card that
is separate from the main LAN card,  The main card operates on a
192.168.1.xxx subnet. 

It appears I need to set piHPSR to recognize the 192.168.5.x subnet.  But
how?
