Re: [44net] Raspberry Pi

Hi Demetre. Have you studied the Compatibility list... Some are shown to be a bad choice.. Some Kingston are listed as such. My first two SD cards I got from Fry's Electronics and they were I think, PNY brands. PNY I have found even their USB Sticks are junk.. But the two I got were only $4 ea.. Bad choice for the Pi. One lasted a few weeks the other until I had a sudden power outage about 6 weeks into it. I now have 2 Kingston SDXC Card 128GB Class 10 SDX10V/128GB Running on TWO pi.. Or Pi Squared.. lol One is under heavy abuse.. I have tried experimenting with sudden power outages, and constant read writes on one unit... And it has not suffered any issues.. In Fact I even tried it from -20F to +140F for S&G's They are NOT OVERCLOCKED. The other runs w9hu BBS Linbpq.. What do you use to image the SD card I used to use Windows program WinDisk32 .. I think this is the biggest issue with the Pi SD Cards.. At least I have had no issues with mine since I stopped that practice. Also what are you using that requires an external HUB.. You can also connect a TNC (other serial devices) to the GPiO port instead of the USB. Have you tried a PiTNC yet? Makes good topping.. :) it is the same size and sits atop the Pi. Like Icing!! 73 Jerry N9LYA PS I ll try to get back one the conv server as time permits..
