<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Ken,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Bill Tracey, Phil Harman and I have been working in
the background putting together a complete manual on how to get the Ozy/Janus
combo working with PowerSDR and the SDR-1000, SoftRock or other RF front end
that PowerSDR will work with. It covers all the issues you mention, such as how
to download software, which jumpers to set, which connectors to use, etc. A few
final, but important details are being tested and worked on as we speak and will
then be documented to complete the manual.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is a little unfortunate that the first boards
are starting to arrive before the manual is complete. Partly because we are all
volunteers, partly because as you may or may not know Bill was sick for a while
and Partly because Scotty and his team were so efficient at getting the boards
out!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Just bear with us a little longer - we are all
doing our best to get the document out and make it as easy as possible for
everyone to get started and enjoy the first couple of working HPSDR
boards.</FONT></DIV>

software and, following the programming instructions, used a byteblaster and
the JTAG port on the Janus to load the Janus_Ozy.pof file that I found in the
Ozy2_Janus2 directory of the .svn repository. This is the only file that
I loaded, and it loaded successfully. (BTW, I found schematics of a
byteblaster on the web. It looks dead easy to build one, although I
haven’t done this.)<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
