[arm-allstar] Baofeng 888s and Raspberry Pi 3. Once Pi boots fully, Baofeng locks in transmit

[Doug Crompton]

Mike,

 The first two links are basically the same but there is no reason to
modify the FOB like that shown in the first link. I would use the second
link and info at the hamvoip.org howto section to modify the FOB. While you
can remove the connectors you can also solder to the pins on them and leave
them in there. There is also no reason to remove any resistors as long as
you use a blocking cap which is shown in the schematic at the simple mode
in the howto's.

As far as the Baofeng is concerned there are different versions and more
than one is shown in the howto's. Find the one that matches your 888 board.
You do need to build up the interface parts shown in the schematic.

You didn't mention a specific problem you were having???

The 888 needs to have item J in simpleusb-tune-menu set to usb and the
levels set but everything else stays the same.
