[Robert Cloutier]

Thank you for the quick reply David. I thought I was going crazy. And, thanks for the RAM and version tips I can pass on to my HAM friends.

Hi Rob,

That's correct---the current HamVoIP firmware won't boot on the 8GB RPi4B 
board.  An update for this should be available soon; I don't have an 8GB 
model to test with currently.

I'll mention that the 8GB model is massively more RAM memory than is
needed! Save your money and purchase TWO $35, 2GB models for the same cost
as a single 8GB model!  Additional memory won't improve HamVoIP
performance.

The current firmware image works with all RPi2/RPi3 boards and the 
RPi4B up thru the 4GB model.

The error message I get is:
“This board requires newer software “
