The SanDisk Ultra is recommended. Amazon has them for $8 to $10 or so. At one time there were lots of cheap knock-offs of these cards and I expect that is why there were lots of failures. This was often a topic on the IRLP Pi forum. Also people were buying the cheapest no name cards they could find. I use all San Disk and I have not heard of one failure even after a year of use. That being said you should always make backups.<br><br>While the GPIO could be used on the RPi2 there is currently no support. We also now do not expect the support to be in the next update. Modification of the FOBs is really not that hard and even if you did do GPIO on the RPi2 you still would need to build interface circuitry. It actually is a lot less kludgey to do everything with the FOB. Check out the simple FOB mod on the hamvoip.org web site in the howto's. There is one really easy way to solder the needed two wires to the chip shown there. <br id="FontBreak"></font><br><b><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">73 Doug</font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">WA3DSP</font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4">http://www.crompton.com/hamradio</font></b><font style="font-size:16pt;" size="4"><br></font><br><br><div><hr id="stopSpelling">From: petem001@gmail.com<br>To: arm-allstar@hamvoip.org<br>Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2015 10:14:32 -0400<br>Subject: [arm-allstar] size of sd card for RPI2<br><br>
