Build your own DMR Hot SPOT

[@mrhutchinsonmn]

Will the newer Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W board work? The Zero W boards are out of stock on Adafruit, but I am seeing plenty of the 2 Ws at other retailers.

I honestly don't know I haven't had tge opportunity to try one.

I use a 2W. It works.

How hot are you running the iron? I mainly solder components onto drones and run at like 410C, but it looks like you're running a low temp and holding on the board long in this one. Pin holes are tiny, just want to make sure I don't fry anything

[@2TrailHikers]

I needed a better iron when I built this got one now run 750f to do most of my projects like this now.

Cannot get the board to be found on my computer, tried installing driver, opened BlueDV and device not found, cannot even use device manager (on three different computers) to find the device... help, please?

It's been a while since I built this. Do you have an os on the micro sd card? If I remember right you access the pi via wifi after the os is loaded to the SD card and installed.

Build your own DMR Hot SPOT so you can use your exspensive DMR Radio to broadcast to a few feet away. Is this real Ham Radio? Just asking

[@2TrailHikers]

It is a form of ham radio.
