[hpsdr] firmware files

[Joseph Lowe]

 I have the files I used to load Ozy/Mercury firmware if you guys want them (only 3mb). I edited the USBblaster.bat file to strip out all reference to the old versions of Quartus and firmware versions. The only downloadable free version that supports the Cyclone III is 13.1. The path to the .exe within Quartus has changed too, so someone without good computer skills is not going to be a happy camper. I had help from a guru son... 

If just the essential files and info to get a receiver working were posted somewhere it would save a LOT of headaches.

George, you need absolutely no assistance from Apache Labs to install PowerSDR on a 'modern' computer. Use https://github.com/TAPR/OpenHPSDR-PowerSDR for access to the win installer.
 
 
I've my 'ancient' Mercury for undersampling tests on VHF and Ozy running without any issue on such a 'modern' computer using PowerSDR 3.4.9 and win 64 bit, built/version 2004. Ozy-FW is 2.8 and Mercury-FW is 3.4. When the FW-check in settings of PowerSDR is disabled the program should start as usual.
 
If the FW of the Atlas boards is older I would recommend a cue of my friend Gerd. DL1BAM: open INITOZY.Bat with the editor and chance in the second line of the given FW combination 'rem' against 'load'. If this and FW-check disabl. is done also Joe's system should start.
